Hard to know what you want here. Are you looking for specific examples of neutralization reactions?

Explanation:

Well, these follow the formulation:

#"Acid + base "rarr" salt + water"#

And we quote strong acid, and strong base......

#HCl(aq) + NaOH(aq) rarr NaCl(aq) + H_2O(l)#

#H_2SO_4(aq) +2KOH(aq) rarr K_2SO_4(aq) + 2H_2O#

Or, weak acid, and strong base.....

#H_3C-CO_2H(aq) + NaOH(aq) rarr H_3C-CO_2^(-)Na^(+) + H_2O(l)#

Or, strong acid, and weak base.....

#2HCl(aq) + Na_2CO_3(aq) rarr 2NaCl(aq) + CO_2(g)uarr + H_2O(l)#

So we gots a lot of choice.
