Answer 1

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

A reaction in which an acid reacts with base and results in the formation of salt and water is known as a neutralization reaction.

For example,
`2HCl + CaOH \rightarrow CaCl_(2) + H_(2)O` is a neutralization reaction as salt here is calcium chloride.

Thus, we can conclude that the reactants in a neutralization reaction are an acid and a base.
