An amphoteric salt is one that contains an anion that can act as either an acid or a base in water. baking soda, nahco3, is an example. by combining the ionization and hydrolysis reactions of the anion, we get the principle reaction that occurs when this salt is dissolved in water.

I believe the statement given is true. An amphoteric substance is a molecule that is able to react as an acid and as a base. A salt, specifically, has an anion that acts as both mentioned above. When this reacts with an acid then it will act as a base and vice versa.
