What is chemical equation?

A chemical equation is a symbolic representation of a chemical reaction that shows the products, reactants, and direction of the reaction.

An acid is any hydrogen-containing substance that is capable of donating a proton (hydrogen ion) to another substance.

A base is a chemical species that donates electrons, accepts protons, or releases hydroxide (OH-) ions in aqueous solution.
