Correct answer: C. Neutralization reaction
- A. Addition reaction
- B. Substitution reaction
- C. Neutralization reaction
- D. Reversible reaction

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.
