Question

Lime water can be neutralized by water.

• A. True
• B. False

Answer 1

The correct option is A True

The above statement is true. Lime water[$\mathrm{Ca}{\left(\mathrm{OH}\right)}_2$] is an example of a base so it can be neutralized by water(${\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}$).

Note: Since water is an amphoteric oxide it will act as an acid in the above case.

Neutralisation reaction: when an acid reacts with a base to form salt and water.
