Acid-Base equations

• Neutralisation reaction


  when an acid and base react to form water and a salt and involves the combination of H+ ions and OH- ions to generate water.
• Metal + Acid


  = Salt + Hydrogen
• Metal oxide + Acid


  = Salt + water
• Metal hydroxide + Acid


  = salt + water
• Metal carbonate + Acid


  = Salt + Water
• Metal hydrogen carbonate + Acid


  = Salt + water + carbon dioxide
• ammonia + acid


  = ammonium salt
