acid-base
Proton exchange reactions
Acid-base describes chemical reactions or relationships between acids and bases—substances that donate or accept hydrogen ions.
An acid-base reaction occurs when these substances neutralize each other.
Acid-base balance in the body refers to the regulation of pH in blood and tissues: The patient's acid-base balance was dangerously off.
