QUESTION:

What is an acid–base reaction? List an example and identify the acid and the base.

ANSWER:

Solution 17Q

Acid-Base reaction is a chemical reaction where an acid and base are participate together. They interact with each other to neutralise the properties of acid and base by producing a salt and water. The acid-base reaction is represented as follows.

Acid (aq)  + Base (base)  ------> salt + Water

For example: The reaction between sulfuric acid (H2SO4) and Potassium hydroxide (KOH) produces potassium sulfate ( K2SO4) and water.

H2SO4(aq) + 2KOH(aq) ------> K2
