* Barium bromide is a salt. Salts are formed from the reaction of an acid and a base.
* Barium hydroxide (Ba(OH)₂) is a strong base.
* Hydrobromic acid (HBr) is a strong acid.
* The reaction of a strong acid and a strong base produces a neutral salt.
Since the ions in barium bromide (Ba²⁺ and Br⁻) do not react with water to produce H⁺ or OH⁻ ions, the solution remains neutral.
