acids
When an acid reacts with a base, the products formed are water and a salt. The hydrogen ion (H+) from the acid combines with the hydroxide ion (OH-) from the base to form water (H2O), while the remaining ions combine to form a salt.
salt & water
Chemical property: Reacts with acid to form a salt and water through a neutralization reaction. Physical property: Acid-base indicators change color in the presence of an acid.
A solution that has a pH of 7, i.e. it is neutral.
Zinc oxide is the insoluble base that can be mixed with sulfuric acid to produce zinc sulfate. When zinc oxide reacts with sulfuric acid, it forms zinc sulfate and water in a chemical reaction.
A base will react with an acid.
With the exception of boron which is unreactive , yes and each member of the group behaves differently. Silicon reacts to hot base and is almost unreactive to acid. Germanium and arsenic reacts to hot concentrated sulfuric and nitric but not to sodium hydroxide. Antimony reacts to nitric and sulfuric acid but not to base. Tellurium reacts to acids and bases.
Salt
Ammonia NH3 behaves as a base when it reacts with an acid because it accepts a proton and becomes NH4+.
when a base is mixed with an acidic solution why does neutralization occurs?
An acid-base reaction is neutralisation. The products are a neutral salt and water.
When a strong base reacts with a weak acid, the base will completely neutralize the acid, forming water and a salt as the products of the reaction. This process is known as a neutralization reaction.
the reaction which takes place when an acid reacts with a base is called neutralization reaction. For instance,if HCl reacts with NaOH, the products are NaCl and water. Neutralizing an acid with a base would always give salt and water as the only products.
It's really neither cuz it reacts with an acid and a base but i would probably say.... Acid
A salt is formed when a strong acid reacts with a strong base.
Fundamentally: acid + base --> a salt + water However, other acid base reactions exist: ex. acid + base --> conjugate base (loses a H) + conjugate acid (gains a H)
Acid + Base -> Salt + Water
