Pure water is considered neutral, as it is found at "7" on the pH scale.
Ideally bottled water would be neither an acid, nor a base. However, most bottled water is actually slightly acidic (pH 6.0-6.5). The reason bottlers do this is that their research shows that people like the tasty of slightly acidic water better than the taste of truly neutral water.
Tonic water is usually acidic due to the presence of carbonic acid and citric acid, so pH paper will likely turn a color indicating acidity such as red or pink.
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.
An acid and a base react to form water and a salt
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
It is a weak base, not an acid. No wonder its excretion is improved by acidification of urine
tonic water
Tonic water is usually acidic due to the presence of carbonic acid and citric acid, so pH paper will likely turn a color indicating acidity such as red or pink.
An acid and a base react to form water and a salt
water is responsible for ionization of acid and base, without water the terms acid and base are meaningless.
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.

Acid + base salt + water
Water is neutral, with a pH of 7. It is not an acid or a base.
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.
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.
