Answer:

It will react with water

Step-by-step explanation:

I know this is an older question, but I just wanted to provide the correct answer.

Since we are dealing with a weak base, and the acid is somewhat stronger, it will react with the water molecules to produce hydronium, which will affect the pH of the solution.
