Salt and water. =)

A neutraliZation reaction is when you mix an acid and a base/alkali. They neutralize each other and water and salt are produced.

A good example of this:

NaOH = Sodium hydroxide (lye) is our base

HCl = Hydrochloric acid is.. well, our acid

NaOH + HCl = NaCl + H2O

NaCl = Sodium chloride (salt)

H2O = Water

Why this happens: The different ions are positively or negatively charged and will bond accordingly to become neutral compounds. Here is a simplified breakdown..

Na(+) OH(-1) + H(+) Cl(-) = NaCl + H2O

In a neutralization reaction, an acid and a base react to form salt and water as the two products. The acid reacts with the base to form a salt, while the hydrogen ions from the acid combine with the hydroxide ions from the base to form water.

If it's between an acid and a base then the products are a salt and water

eg Mg(OH)2 + 2HCl --> MgCl2 + 2H2O

If it's between an acid and a Carbonate then the products are a salt, water and CO2

eg: CaCO3 + 2HCl --> CaCl2 + H2O +CO2

There are a few more different reactions but these are the main two and the only ones I could remember :P

well it depends what two compounds you use

metal oxide + acid --> a salt + water

metal + acid --> a salt + hydrogen
