Acid+Base----> Salt + H2O
This type of a reaction in which an acid and base react to give a salt and water is called a neutralization reaction.
Ex-
HCl + NaOH ---> NaCl + H2O
HCl + KOH ---> KCl + H2O
The nature of salt which we get depends on the acid and base.
If we take strong acid and weak base then the salt formed will we acidic in nature.
and if we take a strong base and weak acid then the salt formed will be basic in nature.
Acid + Salt ----> depends on the salt
Ex-
HCl + CaCO3 ---> CaCl2 + H2O + CO2
Base + Salt ---->depends on the salt

Acids + Base(hydroxide) = metal salt + H2O
Eg: HCl + NaOH ------> NaCl + H2O
Acid + Salt ------> ?
Base + Salt ------->?
I think there are no reactions(I mean there could be but not something u can predict)
