Can you give examples of equations

they basicly use up each otherHCl+NaOH = NaCl+ H2Oso what u got at the end from an acid base reaction is a salt and water nothing acidic or basic so it is neutralized

ok, lets start with a basic reaction like-HCl+NaOH-->H2O+NaCl+H(heat)as you can see above a salt group and water is produced.the salt production is a characteristic of all neutralization reactions.these salts may be acid salts (produced in H2SO4 when 1 mole of NaOH is used) and neutral ones like above.the main mechanism is quite simple, the acid with the pH below seven means that it gives H+ ions on ionizing in water (ie Pka is taken into account) on the other hand basesgive OH- due to their proteophillic nature.these combine to give water and hence the neutralization,other ions give the salt...
