Abstract

We know that the physical world around us is made of large number of chemicals. Soil, air, water, all the life forms and the materials that they use are all consist of chemicals. Out of such chemicals, acids, bases and salts are mostly used in everyday life. Let it be a fruit juice or a detergent or a medicine, they play a key role in our day-to�day activities. Our body metabolism is carried out by means of hydrochloric acid secreted in our stomach. An acid is a the compound which is capable of forming hydrogen ions (H+) in aqueous solution whereas a base is a compound that forms hydroxyl ions (OH– ) in solution. When an acid and a base react with each other, a neutral product is formed which is called salt. In this lesson let us discuss about them in detail
