And because our concentrations of H plus and oh minus are equal, this is a neutral salt. So combining these two guys to form this guy and this guy is the same thing as taking a cup of water and adding some salt inside. The result is the same as if you would take some hydrochloric acid and some sodium hydroxide, mix them and get this, the two results are the same. So let's see what types of salts are formed when strong bases and weak acids react. So once again, let's illustrate using an example. So acetic acid, a weak acid and sodium hydroxide, a strong base, react and dissociate into acetate ion, h plus ion, sodium ion, and hydroxide ion.
