Grade 11 Neutralization

Neutralization reactions occur when an acid and a base react to form a salt and water, resulting in a solution with a neutral pH of 7. They are important in everyday life, such as treating excess stomach acid and preventing tooth decay. Common examples of neutralization include using antacids to treat acid indigestion and toothpaste to neutralize acid in the mouth. Neutralization reactions can be identified through various tests and are exothermic, releasing heat.

NEUTRALIZATION

REACTIONS
Importance of Neutralization
Reaction in everyday life.

• Used to treat acid indigestion and acid


reflux
• This is by neutralizing the excess HCl
acid in the stomach
Importance of Neutralization
Reaction in everyday life.
• Decaying food particles in our teeth
produces acid and cause tooth decay.
• (ii) Using toothpaste during brushing help
to neutralize the acid and preventing tooth
decay since toothpaste is an alkaline. Page:

NEUTRALIZATION
In general, acids and bases react to
produce a salt and water.
•The complete reaction of an acid and a base
produces a neutral solution.
•Thus, this type of reaction is called a
neutralization reaction.
ACID
Adds Hydrogen Ions

H+

Hydrochloric Acid

BASE
Adds Hydroxyl Ions

HCl + NaOH H2O + NaCl + energy

acid + base water + salt + heat

NEUTRAL
Why are acid-base reactions called
neutralization reactions?

• The complete reaction of an acid with a base


creates a solution of a salt in water. This
solution has a neutral pH.

• It is neither acidic nor basic

How can we determine
neutralization point
The neutralization point occurs when the OH- ions
have reacted completely with H+ ions and neither
ions is present in excess.

In a reaction between a strong acid and a


strong alkali, the solution at this point is
neutral, pH 7
