When a strong acid and a strong base is combined, it neutralizes each other. During neutralization, a new "neutral" substance and water is produced. The "neutral" substance will be either acidic or basic in a very weak manner. Since one is always stronger than the other by a small factor, the substance will always get either H3O+ or OH- in a small quantity in the "neutral" substance. This quantity is so small, it does not affect the pH and it usually ends up at 7 after successful neutralization.
you get an acid.
It becomes a neutral eg; acid plus base equals salt(product made) plus hydrogen gas.
It becomes a neutral eg; acid plus base equals salt(product made) plus hydrogen gas.
dont know but i tested it out and it bubbles and fizzing happens.
A strong acid (1 or 2 pH) A weak base ( 8 or 9 pH) The mixture would still be acidic but not as much.
you get an acid.
neutral salt will form.
neutralized
The products of this reaction are a salt and water.
The acid donates protons to the base to form the products.
How about the ever faithful hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide: HCl + NaOH --> NaCl + H20. Strong Acid + Strong Base = Salt & Water

Sodium hydroxide (strong base) and Sulphuric acid (strong acid)
A salt is formed when a strong acid reacts with a strong base.
