    C. A metal ion takes the place of the hydrogen of an acid

    Explanation:

    When an acid react with base neutralization reaction take place.

    During neutralization reaction water and salt are formed.

    For example;

    Base sodium hydroxide react with hydrochloric acid and form sodium chloride and water.

    The sodium hydroxide consist of sodium metal ion in the form of Na⁺ and OH⁻. when it react with acid hydrogen atom of acid replace by sodium metal and react with anion of acid and form salt called sodium chloride.

    Chemical equation:

    NaOH + HCl → NaCl + H₂O
