Question

What happens in a neutralization reaction?

• A. The hydrogen ions $\left(H^{+}\right)$ from the acid and the hydroxide ions $\left(O{H}^{-}\right)$ from the base come together to form water
• B. The hydrogen $\left(H^{+}\right)$ ions from the base and the hydroxide $\left(O{H}^{-}\right)$ ions from the acid come together to form water molecules
• C. The substance is neutralized
• D. A way to determine the concentration of a substance that is in a solution by adding a solution of known concentration and volume until the reaction is completed

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

The hydrogen ions $\left(H^{+}\right)$ from the acid and the hydroxide ions $\left(O{H}^{-}\right)$ from the base come together to form water

In a neutralization reaction, the hydrogen ions $\left(H^{+}\right)$ from the acid and the hydroxide ions $\left(O{H}^{-}\right)$ from the base come together to form water.
$H^{+}+O{H}^{-}\to H_{2}O$
