acid/base oxide reaction laws - what are they? (1 Viewer)

[2006hsc]

i forgot the acid/base oxide reaction laws....

eg. weak acid + weak base -> ??
and so on..

 

[Riviet]

Basically in general:

strong acid + strong base -> neutral salt + water

strong acid + weak base -> acidic salt + water

weak acid + strong base -> basic salt + water

There isn't really a definite trend for weak acid + weak base but you could think of it as weak amounts of the acid and base cancelling each other out but this idea isn't really correct.

just remember the stronger always wins
