The Language of Chemistry Types of Reactions : Metal hydroxides with dilute acids Metals hydroxides will react with dilute acids to give a salt and water.
The metal replaces the hydrogen. The two products are salt and water. These reactions are examples of neutralisation. You will notice that the type of salt produced depends on the acid used. Can you identify the reactants and the products shown in the equations above?
