Deionized water is neutral, but it can act as an acid in the presence of strong base or as a base in the presence of strong acid.
Dissociation constant for water:
Kw = 1.0 x 10-14
The ion-exchange resins that are used to remove certain ions from the water to make it deionized sometimes leave a higher concentration of protons in the water, which makes it slighty acidic.
Because the air contains CO2,which is dissolved in the water and produces carbonic acid. Same effect asacid rain.
No, distilled water and deionized water are not the same. Distilled water is created by boiling water and collecting the steam, while deionized water is purified by removing ions and minerals.
Here are the four general acid reactions. Acid + Base = Salr + Water Acid + Alkali = Salt + Water Acid + Metal = Salt + Hydrogen Acid + Carbonate = Salt + Water + Carbon dioxide. NB An Alkali is a soliuble base.

The deionized water is not an element, but it is a very pure water, without ions in solution.

water is responsible for ionization of acid and base, without water the terms acid and base are meaningless.
The resistivity of deionized water is typically around 18.2 megaohm-cm.
When water is added to a strong acid or base, the concentration of the acid or base decreases because water dilutes the solution. This results in a less concentrated solution of the acid or base.
Acid + base salt + water
acid + base → salt + water
when an acid and a base combine, salt and water are formed. This process of reaction of an acid and base is called neutralisation.
