Write the main difference between an acid and a base. With the help of suitable examples explain the term neutralization and the formation of:
acidic,

Explanation

Neutralization - A reaction of an acid with a base to produce salt and water.
Acidic - `NH_(4)OH + HCl rarr NH_(4)Cl + H_(2)O`
Acids are the substance that are able to donate their hydrogen ion and accept the electron whereas bases are the substances that are able to accept a hydrogen ion and donates electron.
Neutralization is a type of reaction between an acid and a base to give a salt and water with evolution of heat.
Base + Acid `rarr` Salt + Water

Acids salts : These are formed by the neutralization of a strong acid with a weak base.
Example : `H_(2)SO_(4) + NaOH rarr NaHSO_(4) + H_(2)O`
