Predicting Acid/Base of Salts: Explanations Included

[plexus0208]

Homework Statement

Predict whether an aqueous solution of the following salts will be acidic, basic or neutral. Briefly
explain your results.
a. NH4Cl
b. NaCl
c. MgCO3
d. NaH2PO4
e. KNO3

Homework Equations

The Attempt at a Solution

NH4Cl + H2O --> NH4OH + HCl (acidic)
NaCl + H2O --> NaOH + HCl (neutral)
MgCO3 + H2O --> MgOH + HCO3 (basic)
NaH2PO4 + H2O --> NaOH + H3PO4 (basic)
KNO3 + H2O --> KOH + HNO3 (neutral)
Is this correct?

Good.

Predictions are OK, but reaction equations are horrible.
