HCl + NaOH ---------> NaCl +H2O is a nutralization reaction but is it a double displacement reaction?

Open in App

Solution

Yes it is a double displacement reaction too. Two elements are being switched or replaced in the reaction. That's why it is a double displacement reaction.

The reaction is also a neutralization reaction due to the formation of salt and water.

So this reaction can be approached in both ways.
