Question

Write the neutralization reaction between Hydrochloric acid ($\mathrm{HCI}$) and sodium hydroxide ($\mathrm{NaOH}$), and write the equation for this process.

Answer 1

Neutralization reaction:

• A neutralization reaction is a chemical reaction in which an acid and a base combine to form salt and water as products.

Reaction between Hydrochloric acid ($\mathrm{HCI}$) and Sodium hydroxide ($\mathrm{NaOH}$)

• $\underset{\mathrm{Hydrochloric}\mathrm{acid}}{\mathrm{HCl}\left(\mathrm{aq}\right)}+\underset{\mathrm{Sodium}\mathrm{hydroxide}}{\mathrm{NaOH}\left(\mathrm{aq}\right)}\to \underset{\mathrm{Sodium}\mathrm{chloride}}{\mathrm{NaCl}\left(\mathrm{aq}\right)}+\underset{\mathrm{Water}}{{\mathrm{H}}_2\mathrm{O}\left(\mathrm{l}\right)}$
