Yes. An acid-base neutralisation is exothermic, so energy will be released and part of this energy will heat the mixture.

What gas is given off when acid reacts with a alkali?
Depends on the acid and alkali. But in most cases Hydrogen or Carbon Dioxide.
What happens when an acid reacts with an alkali?
Acid + alkali ---> Salt + Water for exampleSodium Hydroxide + Hydrochloric Acid ---> Sodium Chloride + Water
When zinc reacts with dilute hydrochloric acid does the temperature of the acid increase or decrease?
It increases.
If hydrochloric acid is added to sodium hydroxide the temperature increases but there is no visible change did a chemical or physical change occur?
A chemical change occurred. I really hope you did this experiment in a fume hood; adding a strong acid to a strong alkali usually creates a strong explosion.
What happens when a solution of nitric acid is added to a solution of potassium hydroxide?
Whenever an acid reacts with an alkali, a salt and water are formed.This is a neutralization reactioni.e. acid + alkali --> salt +waterIn this case, nitric acid + potassium hydroxide --> potassium nitrate + waterHNO3(aq) + KOH(aq) --> KNO3(aq) + H2O(l)Hence, a solution of potassium nitrate is formed.
Why is there a temperature changes when alkali is added to vinegar?
When an alkali (base) is added to vinegar, the acetic acid in the vinegar reacts with the alkali. These reactions are nearly all exothermic, that is, they generate heat as the chemical reaction proceeds. This is observed by a change in the temperature of the aqueous solution and the surrounding air.
When a acid reacts with an alkali what are the twp products are formed what are they?
acid+alkali=salt+water
What is the name when an acid reacts with an alkali?
neutralization
What is it called when a acid reacts with an alkali?
distilation
What word describes the reaction of an acid and alkali?
When an acid reacts with an alkali (or vice versa) it is called neutralisation.
What word describes When an acid reacts with an alkali?
Neutralization
What gas is given off when acid reacts with a alkali?
Depends on the acid and alkali. But in most cases Hydrogen or Carbon Dioxide.
What is a diagram of acid and alkali particles reacting?
Basically, it is where an acid (red) reacts with an alkali (blue) to create a neutral (green)
Does hydrogen gas form when an acid reacts with an alkali?
Yes it is.
What type of reaction when acid reacts wiyh alkali?
a neutralisation reaction
What happens when an acid reacts with an alkali?
Acid + alkali ---> Salt + Water for exampleSodium Hydroxide + Hydrochloric Acid ---> Sodium Chloride + Water
What alkali form when react with acid?
when alkali which can also be called a base reacts with an acid, a salt is usually form plus water. it is called a neutralization reaction.
