An acid-base reaction is a chemical reaction that occurs between an acid and a base. Acids are substances that can donate a proton (H+) and bases are substances that can accept a proton. When an acid and a base react, they form a salt and water. This type of reaction is also known as a neutralization reaction.
Provide an example of an acid-base reaction and write the balanced chemical equation for it.
Explain the process of neutralization in an acid-base reaction.
Studying acid-base reactions is important in understanding the behavior of various substances and their interactions in the environment and in biological systems.
