Hello!

Neutralization is a chemical reaction in which an acid and a base react quantitatively with each other. In a reaction in water, neutralization results in there being no excess of hydrogen or hydroxide ions present in solution.

A salt is any compound which can be derived from the neutralization of an acid and a base. The word "neutralization" is used because the acid and base properties of H+ and OH- are destroyed or neutralized. In the reaction, H+ and OH- combine to form HOH or H2O or water molecules. A neutralization is a type of double replacement reaction. A salt is the product of an acid-base reaction and is a much broader term then common table salt as shown in the first reaction.

Example : 1.HCL + NaOH = NaCl + H2O
Acid + Base = Salt + Water

2.HBr + KOH = KBr + H2O
Acid + Water = Salt + Water


Hope it helps..!!

hey there,

neutralisation reaction:- when an acid reacts with a base to form salt and water is called neutralisation reaction.

acid + base ----> salt + water

let's take some examples:-

(a) HCl + NaOH ---> NaCl + H₂O 
(b) HNO₃ + KOH ---> KNO₃ + H₂O

as we can see that a salt and water is produced in the reactions so it's neutralisation reaction.

hope it helps..
