when an acid and base react with each other they tend to neutralize their properties by forming Salt.so when an acid's (H+)cation combines with Base's (OH-)anion it forms Water.
for example:-think we combine Hydochloric acid (HCL) with Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH) it forms common table salt which (Nacl).
Some of Acid and Base Properties:-
Acid :-
1> it conducts electricity.
2> it truns blue litmus to red.
3> it reacts with base to neutralize it's property.
4> it tastes sour.
5> it reacts with active metals to liberate hydrogen.
Base has almost the same properties but just cancel out the 5th point from acid and remember itt turns Red litmus to Blue....and it feels slippery.

Why only zinc amongst metal reacts with base?
it is a amphoteric metal and it can react with both acid and base. amphoteric metal shows properties of both acid and base
When acids and bases react the product other than water is?
A salt compound from the non-metal from the acid, and the metal from base.
What react with acids to give a salt and water?
Base forming(metal) oxide eg. CaO, CuO, K2O
How do you react acid with metal?
Metals will react rapidly with most acids. If the acid is concentrated the reaction can be violent. To react one with the other simply drop acid onto the metal surface with an eye dropper or place the metal object into the acid (with care if the acid is strong).
Does flour react with acid?
Flour is a base, not an acid.
Will NH3 react with an acid?
Yes. Ammonia is a base. It will react with an acid to form the corresponding ammonium salt.
Do metal react with base?
no
Can an acid and a base react to form an acid?
NO!!!! Remember the general acid reaction equations. Acid + Base = Salt +Water Acid +Alkali = Salt + Water Acid +Metal = Salt + Hydrogen Acid + Carbonate = Salt + Water + Carbon Dioxide. NB An Alkali is a soluble Base.
What are compounds that taste sour and react with metal?
acid
What does mean by acid base titration?
In simple words acid base titration is a titration in which acid and base react..
Why are citrus fruits not stored in vessels made of metal?
Citrus foods are not stored in metal containers because the the acid in the citric foods react to metal.
Which gas is produced when dilute hydrochloric acid is added to reactive metal?
Remember the general acid reaction eq'ns. Acid + Alkali = Salt + Water Acid + Base = Salt + Water Acid + Metal = Salt +Hydrogen Acid + Carbonate = Salt +Water + Carbon Dioxide. So if you react hydrochloric ACID with a METAL it will produce the gas HYDROGEN.
