1
Q
How are acids neutralised?
A
Acids are neutralised by bases, which are alkaline.
2
Q
What is produced when an acid neutralises using a base?
A
When an acid is neutralised using a base, a salt and water are produced.
3
Q
Excluding using bases, how can acids be neutralised? (2)
A
Along with the use of bases, acids can be neutralised with a metal oxide or with a metal carbonate.
