Question: what would happen if you mixed acids and alkalis together?
A) Nothing.
B) It would explode.
C) It will make salty water.
D) It will make sour taisting water.
C is definitely true but strong acids and alkalis (so alkaline substances, rather than alkali metals who can go off with a bang) can produce a lot of heat. So maybe with a bit of (bad) luck you’ll also get an explosion or at least a little bit of glass breakage?
