Question

Briefly describe the following chemical reaction (use examples with balanced
equations):
a) Neutralization reaction

Answer 1

Neutralization reaction is a reaction between acid and base (or alkali), as a result salt and water are generated.

For example,

2KOH + H₂SO₄ -> K₂SO₄ + 2H₂O

NaHCO₃ + CH₃COOH -> CH₃COONa + H₂O + CO₂
