Reacting acids with bases to produce relatively safe end products.
Helpful?           0
the chemical reaction of an acid and base to yield a salt and water.
Helpful?           0
a reaction in which the hydrogen ion of an acid and the hydroxyl ion of a base unite to form water, the other ionic product being salt.
Helpful?           0
reaction in which the characteristics of an acid or base disappear.
Helpful?           0
a chemical reaction in which an acid and a base interact with the formation of a salt; with strong acids and bases the essential reaction is the combination of hydrogen ions with hydroxyl ions to form water
Helpful?           0
a type of double replacement reaction
Helpful?           0
The addition of substances to neutralize water, so that it is neither acid, nor basic. Neutralization does not specifically mean a pH of 7.0; it just means the equivalent point of an acid-base reaction.
Helpful?           0
raising the pH of an acidic material or lowering the pH of an alkaline material to a nearly neutral pH level (7)
Helpful?           0
A reaction between acid and base which neutralizes both and results in the formation of water plus a salt.
Helpful?           0
a process that causes toxic waste to react with another chemical to produce a harmless substance.
Helpful?           0
The reaction between equivalent amounts of an acid and a base to form a salt.
Helpful?           0
a reaction in which an acid reacts with a base to produce a salt and water.
Helpful?           0
Decreasing the acidity or alkalinity of a substance by adding alkaline or acidic materials, respectively.
Helpful?           0
A as used in the hydrogen peroxide disinfecting system, this refers to an acceleration of the ongoing chemical reaction of decomposition of residual H2O2 by either a catalytic effect or chemical reaction.
Helpful?           0
Neutralization is the process in which an acid reacts with a base to form a salt and water. H+ + OH- H2O
Helpful?           0
The reaction of an acid with a base to form a salt and water. Usually, the reaction of hydrogen ions with hydrogen ions to form water molecules.
Helpful?           0
The process of adding an acid or alkaline material to water or soil to adjust its pH to a neutral position.
Helpful?           0
The chemical process that produces a solution that is neither acidic nor alkaline. Usually with a pH between 6 and 8.
Helpful?           0
elimination of excess H+ or OH- ions by adding base or acid.
Helpful?           0
the process by which water's acidity is adjusted to a neutral range; acidic water can be corrosive
Helpful?           0
The addition of either an acid to a base or a base to an acid to produce a more nearly neutral solution.
Helpful?           0
The process by which acid or alkaline properties of a solution are altered by addition of certain reagents to bring the hydrogen and hydroxide concentrations to equal value (pH 7 is neutral).
Helpful?           0
The chemical process of making a solution of acid or base into a neutral solution by adding either base or acid, respectively. A process represented by the reaction:Acid + Base -- H2O + Salt
Helpful?           0
The addition of either an acid or a base to a solution as required to produce a neutral solution. The use of alkaline or basic materials to neutralize the acidity of some waters is a common practice in water conditioning.
Helpful?           0
the process of eliminating potentially harmful static charges by exposing a charged object to ionized air. The static charges on the surface attract opposite charged ions from the air so that the ions recombine to reform neutral molecules.
Helpful?           0
Neutralization is a chemical reaction, also called a water forming reaction, in which an acid and a base or alkali (soluble base) react and produce a salt and water. In other words, it can be said that neutralization is the combination of hydrogen ions H+ and hydroxide ions OH− (or oxide ions O2−) to form water molecule H2O. In the process, a salt is formed.
