A base is the opposite of an acid. An alkali is a base that will dissolve in water.
In general terms:
Acid + Base = Salt + Water
If the base is a carbonate, then:
Acid + carbonate Base = Salt + Water + Carbon Dioxide
If the base is a reactive metal:
Acid + Reactive Metal = Salt + Hydrogen
Hope this helpsTrue or false...? Reaction of an acid with a base usually forms a salt plus water.?
true
