What is salt?

A neutralization reaction is when an acid and a base react to form water and a salt

It involves the combination of H+ ions and OH- ions to generate water. 

 When a solution is neutralized, it means that salts are formed from equal weights of acid and base.

 Acid + Base --> Salt + Water

Therefore, salt is the combination of a metal ion and a non-metal ion.

eg: NaCl ,KCl
