Here is the way you know.
acid + base ==> salt + water.
If the acid is strong and the base is weak, the salt will be acidic and the equivalence point will be <7.
If the base is strong and the acid is weak, the salt will be basic and the equivalence point will be >7. If the acid is strong and the base is strong, the pH at the equivalence point will be 7.
For a. HI + NaOH ==> NaI + H2O.
HI is strong. NaOH is strong. Equivalence point will be 7.0
