What are the products of Sodium hydroxide + hydrochloric acid?

Answer 1

#"Salt and water..........."#

The chemical equation for balance is provided by:

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

Because the sodium ions and the chloride ions are along for the ride, and remain in solution as aquated ions, #[Na(OH_2)_6]^(+)#, etc., we could write the net ionic equation, which illustrates bond formation:

#H^(+) + HO^(-)rarr H_2O(l)#

ELSE

#H_3O^(+) +HO^(-) rarr 2H_2O(l)#

These two equations are interchangeable.

The products of the reaction between sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and hydrochloric acid (HCl) are water (H2O) and sodium chloride (NaCl), commonly known as table salt. This reaction is a classic example of a neutralization reaction, where an acid and a base react to form a salt and water.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
