Acids are sour in taste.

Base are bitter in taste and soapy to touch.

Salt is defined as a compound formed by the complete

or incomplete replacement of the hydrogen ion of an

acid by a basic radical.

Why is salt formed when an acid is combined with a base?

Because it does. This is what we call science. The in-despicable earth.


What is formed when an acid and a base is mixed?

when an acid and a base combine, salt and water are formed. This process of reaction of an acid and base is called neutralisation.


Is Salt formed when an acid or a base react chemically?

Yes. An acid-base reaction forms a salt and water. acid+ + base− = salt + water


How does salt neutralise?

I'm assuming you mean a salt neutralising an acid or base- This can not actually happen, because a salt is already 'Neutralised' An acid can neutralise a base, and a base neutralise an acid, but when Base+Acid reacts, a salt is formed. Adding a salt to a acid or base solution will only make it salty.


Word equation for neutralisation?

The term neutralization, as used in science, generally refers to pH, and means a process by which a pH that is either above or below 7 is changed by the addition of some acid or base, to bring it back to, or closer to 7, which is the neutral pH level.


What forms when base react with acid they form salt and what?

acid+ base= salt + water


What is the general form for the simplest type of acid base reaction?

Acid + base salt + water


What are the reactants and products in a neutralization reaction?

In a neutralisation reaction, an acid and a base will react to form a salt and water. This salt will be either acidic, basic or neutral depending upon the pH of the reactions. General rules:weak acid + strong base → basic salt + waterstrong acid + weak base → acidic salt + waterstrong acid + strong base → neutral salt + waterweak acid + weak base → neutral salt + water


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 is the conclusion of acid base and salt?

guys the conclusion of acid base and salt is a salt only..... good luck guys...........


What is an acid neutralized by?

An Acid is neutralised by a Base , Alkali or Carboinate. Remember the general equations. Acid + Alkali = Salt + Water Acid + Base = Salt + Water Acid + Carbonate = Salt + Water + Carbon dioxide. NB An Alkali is a soluble Base.


Is carbonic acid a salt or base or acid?

It is an acid.
