• This method is used in wastewater treatment in order to reduce the damage created by the
effluents.
• Neutralization is used in the manufacturing of antacid tablets.
• The neutralization reaction is used to control the pH of the soil.
• When a metal reacts with water, a metal hydroxide and hydrogen are formed.
Na + H2O ➞ NaOH + H2
Ca + H2O ➞ Ca(OH)2 + H2
• Acids react with most metals and they form a salt and hydrogen gas.
Mg + HCl → MgCl2 + H2
