Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A reaction in which an acid reacts with base and results in the formation of salt and water is known as a neutralization reaction.

For example, [tex]2HCl + CaOH \rightarrow CaCl_{2} + H_{2}O[/tex] is a neutralization reaction as salt here is calcium chloride.

Thus, we can conclude that the reactants in a neutralization reaction are an acid and a base.
