A chemical reaction resulting in a change in the electric charge on the reacting particles may be called as:

Correct answer: B. Redox reaction

  • A. Add ion reaction
  • B. Redox reaction
  • C. Elimination reaction
  • D. Chain reaction

Explanation

A 'redox reaction' involves the transfer of electrons between substances, leading to changes in oxidation states and electric charges of the reacting particles. This is correct as it directly involves changes in electric charge.

About Acids, Bases and Salts

Acid and base behaviour is explained through the Bronsted-Lowry transfer of protons and the Lewis donation or acceptance of electron pairs. The topic includes pH, pOH, ionisation and water equilibrium, plus salt formation and hydrolysis, where a salt solution may become acidic, basic or neutral.
