It depend on the chemical composition of salt
If it is acidic or basic it will change the pH. The common salt (NaCl) is neutral in nature so it doesn't change the pH
no its a basic
Yes, a salt can be acidic, when it has PH<7 in solution; eg. NH4Cl, (NH4+)aq is a weak acid.
Sodium chloride NACL
Potassium chloride KCL
I KNOW ONLY THESE SALTS.
yes salt acts as a buffer which neutralizes the acid.
no.
No!
Yes
If the salt is insoluble, any ions in water and the measured pH is the pH of water.
The pH value of salt water is 8.
"Does Salt Change the pH of Water?It depends upon the pH of the water into which the salt is being introduced. Chemically speaking, salt is a basecompound, falling smack in the center of the acid-alkaline spectrum (at 7). If introduced to water which has a high pH, the pH might be lowered incrementally toward the center of the pH spectrum depending on how much water there was and how much salt was introduced. If the water had a very low pH, making it very acidic, the salt would increase the pH toward the center of the spectrum."
If it is common salt ( sodium chloride) the pH should not alter as they are both neutral substances at pH = 7.
Yes
No, it is not possible.
The residue on the pebbles is not just salt. It contains very many elements that go into sea water. The pH will be effected (raised) if sufficient sea salt is added.

I just conducted an experiment with a small amount of limstone in beakers of acids and bases and the Ph levels stayed the same.
Water solution of salt is neutral.

The pH is unchanged.
No, ozone does not affect PH of water. However as ozone is a powerful oxidizer it can oxidize compounds in the water that may indirectly change the PH of the water.
The water solution of Epsom salt is neutral.
