Why is 0.15 m of hypochlorous acid acidic and 0.15 m of sodium hypochlorite basic?

Explanations:- As is clear from the name hypochlorous acid, it's acidic because it's an acid. No matter what is the concentration of the acid, the acid solution is acidic as it gives hydrogen or hydroneium ions to the aqueous solution.

Hypochlorous acid, HClO is a weak acid where as NaOH is a strong base. When these two react, NaOCl is formed which is a salt of strong base and weak acid and this is the reason why the solution of sodium hypochlorite is basic.

sodium is the spectator ion that is not must to be represented while writing net ionic equation for the hydrolysis of sodium hypochlorite.

If we look at the first equation then we have hydrogen ion on product side that means the solution is acidic and if we look at the second equation then we have hydroxide ion on product side which indicates the solution is basic.
