third choice because the others make no sense

Answer:  It is a salt because it is formed by the reaction of an acid and a base.

Explanation:  When an Acid and Base reacts with each other, the product formed is known as Salt. This reaction is a kind of neutralization reaction in which acid is being neutralized by the base.

Thus Sodium Chloride is a salt because it is formed by the neutralization reaction of the strong acid like HCl and strong base like NaOH

                      HCl(aq) + NaOH (s)  →  NaCl(s)

Thus all the other options given are wrong.
