* KCl is a salt formed from a strong acid (HCl) and a strong base (KOH). Strong acids and bases completely dissociate in water, meaning they break down into their respective ions.
* When KCl dissolves, it dissociates into K+ and Cl- ions. These ions do not react with water to form H+ or OH- ions, which are responsible for pH changes.
* The solution remains neutral. A neutral solution has a pH of 7.
In summary: Dissolving KCl in water does not introduce any new acidic or basic species into the solution, so the pH remains unchanged.
