Chapter 17, Problem 36E

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The difference and similarity between redox and acid-base reactions is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The chemical reactions that include both reduction and oxidation are known as redox reactions. In such type of reactions, the change in energy occurs in the form of heat and light.

When a chemical reaction occurs between an acid and a base, it forms a salt and such reactions are known as acid-base reactions. It is a neutralization reaction.
