Acid-Base Reactions.

Blog Post #4
(December 02, 2015)

Any reaction that forms water and produces a salt is classified as an Acid-Base Reaction.
The driving force in this reaction would be the production of water (H2O).

To tell if it is a salt, there would be the cation of the base, and the anion of the acid.
Examples of Salts formed from Acid Base reactions.

When working with Acid-Base reactions, there are rules for strong acids/bases and weak acids/bases.

                                         STRONG ACIDS                                             
                                            Produce H+ Ions                                               
                                        Pronate Completely                                          
                               HCl, HBr, HI = Strong monoprotic                                
                
                                                   STRONG BASES                                                       Contain OH Anion
                                                      Disassociate completely                    
                                                   Group 1&2 metals + OH anion            

                                                           WEAK ACIDS                                                   
                                                   Do not pronate completely
                                                    
                                                         WEAK BASES
                                              Do not disassociate completely

    Thanks for being so detailed in your post. It was really helpful for remembering the what a strong base and strong acid is, and just providing information to make the problems seem less confusing. Thanks!
