Neutralisation reaction is the reaction between an acid and a base dissolved in aqueous solution to form salt and water.
Acid + Base ➝ Salt + Water
HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq) ➝ NaCl(aq) + H2O(l)
HNO3(aq) + KOH(aq) ➝ KNO3(aq) + H2O(l)
Both NaCl and KNO3 are neutral in nature. They neither change blue litmus red nor red litmus blue. That is why the reaction is called neutralisation reaction.
