The answer is D higher potential energy and is unstable
The answer is: " NaCl + H₂O " ; (or; write as: " H₂O + NaCl " ) .

HCl + NaOH —> NaCl + H₂O ; or; write as:
NaOH + HCl —> H₂O + NaCl .

This type of "double-replacement" reaction is called "neutralization".
Since we are adding a strong acid to a strong base (reactants), we know that the product will be: 1) a salt ; and 2) water. Since we know one of the reactants will be "water" (H₂O) ; we can find the base (i.e. , the "remaining product") from selecting the "unused elements" to form the corresponding "salt".

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. The following reaction does not proceed to form a product: H2O + Au---> no reaction because gold has a lower activity than hydrogen and cannot replace it. Hope this answers the question.
Answer:
<u><em>METALS</em></u>
Lose their valence electrons easily/ ionic by electron loss.
<u><em>NOMETAL</em></u>
Gain or share valence electrons easily/ ionic by electron grain.
<span>Based on solubilities you can separate naphthalene and NaCl by adding the mixture to a volume of water. NaCl is highly soluble in water, so it will dissolve completely, while the insoluble naphthalen will remain solid. Next your filter the solution, washing the solid with pure water to eliminate all the NaCl from it. The NaCl will remain is solution, and you can obtain it by evaporating the water. The other method to separate naphthalene and NaCl is based on sublimation property of naphthalene: you can permit that naphthalene sublimes freely or use vacuum to accelerate the process. You use a closed vessel to catch all the gas, while the NaCl will remain solid.</span>
