Answer
Products: $NaCl(aq)$ and $H_2O(l)$
Balanced equation:
$NaOH(aq) + HCl(aq) --\gt NaCl(aq) + H_2O(l)$
Work Step by Step
1. Double replacement reactions follow the pattern:
$AB + CD --\gt AD + BC$
In this case: A = Na, B = OH, C = H and D = Cl.
Therefore, the complete reaction should be:
$NaOH(aq) + HCl(aq) --\gt NaCl(aq) + H_2O(l)$
- The equation is already balanced.
