Acid-Base Reactions



Acid-Base reactions driving force is the productions of water. In additions, they produce a salt. Acid-Base reactions are chemical reactions that take an acid and a base to form water and a salt, which is the cations of the base and the anion of the acid. More info on acid-base reactions here.



Acid-Base reactions are similar to double replacement reactions, but differ in the fact that they only have one ionic compound while double replacement has two. Reactions also differ in the fact that weak acids and bases can effect the outcome differently than strong acid and bases. Basically strong acids and bases completely disassociate while weak acids and bases don't. More information on the specifics can be found here.
