Question

write a chemical equation for neutralization reaction using above material​

Answer 1

Answer:

Acid + Base ------> salt + water

Answer 2

Answer:

A neutralization reaction takes place between "an acid and a base" to form 'salt and water'.

The general format is : HX (acid) + BOH(Base) → BX(Salt) + water

Explanation:

For example:

$\mathrm{HCl}+\mathrm{NaOH} \rightarrow \mathrm{NaCl}+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}$

$\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}+\mathrm{KOH} \rightarrow \mathrm{K}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}$

• Depending upon the strength of the reactants, the salt formed will either be acidic or basic salt.
• Neutralization reaction between acids and bases are used in many ways like to treat insect stings, acidity or gastritis, correct acidic or basic soil, prevention of tooth decay and prevention of coagulation process like that of latex in the 'rubber industry'.
