Answer

D

Explanation

The process due to which an acid completely reacts with a base to form salt and water as the only products is called neutralization. Add slaked lime to soil to neutralize the acidity of the soil. Persons suffering from acidity are given antacid tablets like `Mg(OH)_(2)` to neutralize acidity. Submariners in submarine and astronauts in spaceships, use lithium hudroxide to neutralize `CO_(2)` which is exhaled.
