A chemical reaction.

Acid + alkali = salt + water

eg H2SO4 + 2NaOH = Na2SO4 + 2H2O

Sulfuric acid + Sodium Hydroxide = Sodium Sulfate + water

Whan as acid meets an alkali they create a chemical reaction. If there is an acid and you add a weak alkali you should bring it down to neutral.

How do you neutralize a acid or alkali?

To neutralise an acid add sodium carbonate. 2H^+ + Na2CO3 = 2Na^(+) + H2O + CO2 It forms the salt , water and carbon dioxide. To neutralise an alkali add 'milk'.

What can be done to restore the pH of the lake to a value of seven?

If it is very acidy, eg pH 1, then add alkali until it neutralises the acid. If it is a strong alkali, add acid until it neutralises the alkali . Hope this helps, Nomes24 :D


What happens when drops of pH is added to an alkali?

pH is NOT a compound, it is a acidic/base property of solutions. So you cannot add 'drops of pH' to anything what's so ever.


What does neutrilise mean?

In acid-base reactions, neutralizing is when you add exactly enough chemical to bring the total solution pH to 7. If you have acid you put alkali in it; for alkali you add acid.
