Answer:

Enzyme  

Explanation:

An enzyme is an organic catalyst that speeds up a reaction but can be recovered unchanged.

Human lactase consists of 4092 amino acid groups and has a molar mass of about 280 000 u, so it has a complex structure.

An acid and a base react to form salt and water. Which of the following best describes this type of chemical reaction? Redox Neu
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

Neutralization

Explanation:

When an acid react with base it form the salt and  water. The reaction is also called neutralization reaction because both neutralize each other.

In neutralization reaction equal amount of acid and base react to neutralize each other and equal amount of water and salt are formed. When pH does not reach to 7 its means there is less amount of one of reactant which is not fully neutralize.

Neutralization reactions are also used as first aid. For example when someone is dealing with HCl for cleaning purpose of toilet and get touched. It is advised to neutralize it with soap, milk or egg white.

Example:

Hydrochloric acid when react with the sodium hydroxide, a salt sodium chloride and water are formed.

Chemical equation:

HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H₂O

Titration:

Neutralization reactions are also used to determine the concentration of solution. Titration is a quantitative technique in which acid or base is gradually added into the solution whose concentration is to be determine until the neutral point is reached.
