Strong acid can be involved in a spontaneous reaction which is termed as:
Correct answer: C. Neutralization reaction
- A. Addition reaction
- B. Substitution reaction
- C. Neutralization reaction
- D. Reversible reaction
Explanation
A strong acid reacts spontaneously with a strong base. This process produces salt and water and releases energy. Such a spontaneous reaction is called a neutralization reaction.

About Acids, Bases and Salts
Acid and base behaviour is explained through the Bronsted-Lowry transfer of protons and the Lewis donation or acceptance of electron pairs. The topic includes pH, pOH, ionisation and water equilibrium, plus salt formation and hydrolysis, where a salt solution may become acidic, basic or neutral.
