What is the chemical reaction called when an acid and a base are combined to form a salt and water?
Neutralization
In neutralization reactions, an acid reacts with a base to form a
salt
and water.
True
In neutralization reactions, water is formed when H⁺ ions combine with OH⁻ ions to form
H₂O
Sodium hydroxide (
NaOH
) is an example of a base in neutralization reactions.
True
Neutralization reactions reduce the acidity and alkalinity of a solution, bringing its pH closer to
neutral
What are the products formed in a neutralization reaction?
Salt and water
In a neutralization reaction, an acid donates protons (H⁺) and a base accepts them, forming water and a
salt
Steps in the neutralization reaction process
1️⃣ Acid donates protons (H⁺)
2️⃣ Base accepts protons (OH⁻)
3️⃣ Water (H₂O) is formed
4️⃣ Remaining ions combine to form a salt
The salt formed in a neutralization reaction consists of the cation from the base and the anion from the
acid
What gas is produced in an acid-metal neutralization reaction?
Hydrogen
Neutralization reactions are used in everyday applications such as treating acid reflux.
True
In a neutralization reaction, the acid donates protons (H⁺), which are accepted by the base (OH⁻) to form
water
Acids donate
protons
Neutralization reactions reduce the acidity and
alkalinity
of a solution.
True
What is one everyday application of neutralization reactions?
Treating acid reflux
Acid-Base reactions always produce hydrogen gas.
False
Neutralization reactions are important in treating acid
reflux
Match the acid and base with their neutralization products:
HCl + NaOH ↔️ NaCl + H₂O
CH₃COOH + NaOH ↔️ CH₃COONa + H₂O
What type of ion does an acid donate in a neutralization reaction?
Protons (H⁺)
Steps in the neutralization reaction process
1️⃣ Acid donates protons (H⁺)
2️⃣ Base accepts protons (OH⁻)
3️⃣ Water (H₂O) is formed
4️⃣ Salt is formed
Match the reactant type with an example:
Acid ↔️ Hydrochloric acid (HCl)
Base ↔️ Sodium hydroxide (NaOH)
What are the two reactants in neutralization reactions?
Acids and bases
In a neutralization reaction, the base accepts protons (H⁺) to form water.
True
Match the reactant with its role in neutralization reactions:
Acid ↔️ Donates protons (H⁺)
Base ↔️ Accepts protons (H⁺)
An acid-base neutralization reaction produces a salt and water.
True
Neutralization is the reaction between an acid and a base to form a salt and
water
Match the neutralization example with its products:
HCl + NaOH ↔️ NaCl + H₂O
CH₃COOH + NaOH ↔️ CH₃COONa + H₂O
What are the two reactants in neutralization reactions?
Acids and bases
What two products are formed in a neutralization reaction?
Salt and water
Match the type of neutralization reaction with its correct description:
Acid-Base ↔️ Salt and water
Acid-Metal ↔️ Salt and hydrogen gas
Acid-Carbonate ↔️ Salt, carbon dioxide, and water
Order the reactants and products in an Acid-Base neutralization reaction:
1️⃣ Acid (H⁺)
2️⃣ Base (OH⁻)
3️⃣ Salt
4️⃣ Water
In an Acid-Metal reaction, hydrogen gas is formed alongside a
salt
