Neutralization Reaction:-

➢ A neutralization reaction can be defined as a chemical reaction in which an acid and base quantitatively react together to form a salt and water as products.

➢In a neutralization reaction, there is a combination of H+ ions and OH– ions which form water. A neutralisation reaction is generally an acid-base neutralization reaction.

Neutralization Reaction Equation:-

  • Acid + Base(alkali) → Salt + Water

Neutralization Reaction Examples:-

  • Formation of Sodium Chloride (Common Salt): HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H2O
  • Titration methods using phenolphthalein.
