Solution Summary

The reaction between sodium hydrocide and hydrochloric acid,a strong acid and a strong base, leads to neutralization with the net ionic equation being the formation of water from a hydronium ion and a hydroxide ion

Solution Preview

a. Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is a base, whereas hydrochlolic acid (HCl) is an acid. The reaction between an acid and a
base leads to neutralization with the formation of a salt and water as shown below:
NaOH (aq) + HCl (aq) = > NaCl (aq) + H2O (l)

NaCl is the salt also known as common salt, H2O is water.

b. In order to write the net ionic equation, the ...
