Final answer:

A neutralization reaction involves an acid and a base reacting to form water and a salt. The only reaction here that does not fit this definition is d) AgNO₃ + HCl --> AgCl + HNO₃, as it produces another acid and a salt, but no water.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is asking you to identify which of the provided equations does not represent a neutralization reaction. A neutralization reaction is a type of chemical reaction where an acid and a base react to form water and a salt, usually resulting in a pH of 7 (neutral). The reaction d) AgNO₃ + HCl --> AgCl + HNO₃ is not a neutralization reaction since they produce another acid (HNO₃, nitric acid) and a salt (AgCl, silver chloride) but no water (H₂O).
