Hint:Salt is the product formed from the reaction between an acid and a base. This reaction is called a neutralization reaction. The given compound sodium chloride is an example of a salt. These salts undergo hydrolysis to produce acids and bases.

Complete answer:
Water has a polar character. Hydrolysis is a process in which an ionic compound is dissolved in water to dissociate into its corresponding ions. The reaction showing the dissociation of water is given below:
${{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{O}} \rightleftharpoons {{\text{H}}^ + } + {\text{O}}{{\text{H}}^ - }$
When a strong acid reacts with a strong base, salt is formed. This salt solution has a ${\text{pH}}$ of$7$. The salt, when reacted with water, has neither acidic properties nor basic properties. When sodium chloride is dissociated, it forms ${\text{N}}{{\text{a}}^ + }$ and ${\text{C}}{{\text{l}}^ - }$ ions.
${\text{NaCl}} \rightleftharpoons {\text{N}}{{\text{a}}^ + } + {\text{C}}{{\text{l}}^ - }$
But these ions do not get hydrolyzed, i.e. they have no ability to react with ${{\text{H}}^ + }$ and ${\text{O}}{{\text{H}}^ - }$ ions which are produced by the dissociation of water. Thus the concentration of ${{\text{H}}^ + }$ and ${\text{O}}{{\text{H}}^ - }$ does not change, thereby no change in the ${\text{pH}}$, i.e. it remains neutral.
Thus we can say that both ${\text{N}}{{\text{a}}^ + }$ and ${\text{C}}{{\text{l}}^ - }$ ions do not get hydrated when ${\text{NaCl}}$ gets dissolved in water. But the ${\text{pH}}$ of the solution is $7$.
So Assertion is incorrect but Reason is correct.

Hence, the correct option is C.

Note:
When weak acids and weak bases are reacted, both the cations and anions undergo hydrolysis reactions. Thus it is difficult to analyze. When a strong base is reacted with a weak acid, then the salt solution will be basic. When a strong acid is reacted with a weak base, then the salt solution will be acidic.
