Question

Which of the following is a neutralisation reaction?

a. NaOH -> Na⁺ + OH^-

b. NH₃ +H⁺ -> NH₄⁺²

c. HCl +NaOH -> NaCl + H₂O

d. ADP +Pi -> ATP

e. HCl -> H⁺ + Cl^-

Answer 1

we know that

in a neutralization reaction

an acid and a base react to form a salt and water

a)

NaOH ---> Na+ + OH -

this is a dissociation reaction .

Not an acid base reaction

b)

NH3 + H+ --> NH4+

this is an association reaction

c)

HCl + NaOH ---> NaCl + H20

here

HCl ---> acid

NaOH ---> base

NaCl ----> salt

H20 ----> water

so

an acid (HCl) reacts with a base (NaOH) to given salt (NaCl) and water

so

this is a nuetralization reaction

d) ADP + pi ---> ATP

not a neutralization reaction

e)

HCl ---> H+ + Cl-

this a dissociation reaction

So

the answer is option C)
