Acid base reactions?
Acid-base reactions are chemical reactions that occur only between an acid and a base. These are examples of single-displacement reactions. An acid is loosely described as something, whether it be an element or a compound, combined with hydrogen to form a (larger) compound. A base is loosely described as a compound or element combined with OH (Hydroxide). An acid-base reaction always yields H2O.
Is a hci element?
No, it's not an element. HCI would a compound consisting of Hydrogen, Carbon and Iodine, which are elements. However, HCI does not exist, but HCl (with a lowercase L) does. It is not an element, it is a compound consisting of hydrogen and chlorine, commonly known as hydrochloric acid.
