I need to know how I can tell what the products will be in reactions similar to these:

KOH + H2O <---> x + y

HSO₃^- + H2O <--->  x + y

KCH3CO2 + H20 <----> x +y

When ever I see a compound added to water, I have no clue what the products will be.   

NH₄Br + LiOH

In the reaction above there are 2 compounds, I think you just have to switch the cations to get the products. Is that right?

1/ No reaction will take place, only dissociation
2/ So based on Bronsted-Lowry, what can you say about the role of hydrosulphite anion and water? What is acid and what is base
3/ Simply is : CH₃COO^- + H₂O <-->, similar to (2)
4/NH₄⁺ + OH^- -->
Can you tell me about the product you guess and their basicity ?
I think you'd better revise the acid-base theory of Bronsted-Lowry, it'll help you to solve the above problems easily.
