QUESTION:
Write a neutralization reaction for each acid and base pair.
(a) HF(aq) and \(\mathrm{Ba(OH)_2}\)(aq)
(b) \(\mathrm{HClO_4}\)(aq) and NaOH(aq)
(c) HBr(aq) and \(\mathrm{Ca(OH_2)}\)(aq)
(d) HCl(aq) and KOH(aq)
ANSWER:Step 1 of 2
A neutralization reaction occurs when an acid and a base react to form water and a salt. This type of reaction is a specific type of double displacement reaction where the hydrogen ion (H+) from the acid reacts with the hydroxide ion (OH-) from the base to form water (\(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\)).
Now, let's write the neutralization reactions for each acid and base pair:
