Question

Define neutralization reaction?

Answer 1

Part-1 Neutralization reaction:-

• We know a reaction in which acid and the base of the same quantities react together to give the same quantity of salt as a neutralization reaction.
• An acid-base neutralization reaction is also known as titration.

Part-2 Example of neutralization reaction

$$\begin{gathered} \mathrm{NaOH}\left(\mathrm{aq}\right)+\mathrm{HCl}\left(\mathrm{aq}\right)⇢\mathrm{NaCl}\left(\mathrm{s}\right)+{\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}\left(\mathrm{l}\right) \\ (1\mathrm{mol})\mathrm{Base}(1\mathrm{mol})\mathrm{Acid}\mathrm{Salt}(1\mathrm{mol})\mathrm{Water} \\ (\mathrm{Sodium}\mathrm{hydroxide})(\mathrm{Hydrochloric}\mathrm{acid})(\mathrm{Sodium}\mathrm{chloride}) \end{gathered}$$

Final answer- Hence, a reaction in which acid and base of the same quantities react together to give the same quantity of salt is known as a neutralization reaction$$\begin{gathered} \mathrm{NaOH}\left(\mathrm{aq}\right)+\mathrm{HCl}\left(\mathrm{aq}\right)⇢\mathrm{NaCl}\left(\mathrm{s}\right)+{\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}\left(\mathrm{l}\right) \\ (1\mathrm{mol})\mathrm{Base}(1\mathrm{mol})\mathrm{Acid}\mathrm{Salt}(1\mathrm{mol})\mathrm{Water} \\ (\mathrm{Sodium}\mathrm{hydroxide})(\mathrm{Hydrochloric}\mathrm{acid})(\mathrm{Sodium}\mathrm{chloride}) \end{gathered}$$
