Answer:

Neutral

Explanation:

We can consider this salt as a neutral one. It can be prepared by a neutralization reaction between the base and the acid.

CsOH  + HBr →  H₂O  + CsBr

As the two reactants are strong, the HBr as a strong acid, and the CsOH as a strong base, the ions are considered as: the weak conjugate acid and the weak conjugate base.

Br⁻  +  H₂O ← HBr + OH⁻

Cs⁺  +  H₂O ←  CsOH  +  H⁺

They can not react to water, that's why the salt is neutral (similar as the NaCl)

pH = 7
