Question

In a neutralization reaction, an aqueous solution of an Arrhenius acid reacts with an aqueous solution of an Arrhenius base to produce
A. an ether and water
B. an ether and alcohol
C. a salt and water
D. a salt and an alcohol

Answer 1

Answer: c. Salt and Water

Explanation:

For example;

When an Arrhenius acid such as; Tetraoxosulphate (VI) acid  (H2SO4) reacts with an Arrhenius base such as Potassium hydroxide (KOH), the products formed in this neutralization reaction is a salt known as ''Potassium Sulphate''  (K2SO4) and ''Water'' (H2O).

H2SO4   +     KOH ------------->   K2SO4      +    H2O
