The answer is 1M sodium hydroxide.
The salt with a pH value of 14 is 1M sodium hydroxide (NaOH). Since this pH value is at the other extreme end of the pH scale, the acidic content in this chemical compound is nil. However, it is highly basic.

pH is referred to a logarithmic scale that is used to determine the acidity/ basicity of a solution( in water).
A pH scale is from 1-14 where any pH less than 7 is acidic whereas any pH greater than 7 is basic/alkaline.
A pH of 14 means it is completely alkaline in nature and has no hint of acidity in it.An example of such a solution is 1 M Sodium hydroxide or Potassium hydroxide solution.
