Question

A common neutralization reaction, that is used in titrations, involves sodium hydroxide, NaOH, reacting with nitric acid, HNO3. What are the products of this reaction?

Answer 1

Answer: The products of the reaction are $NaNO_3\text{ and }H_2O$

Explanation:

Neutralization reaction is defined as the reaction when an acid reacts with a base to produce a salt and water molecule.

The chemical equation for the reaction of sodium hydroxide and nitric acid follows:

$NaOH+HNO_3\rightarrow NaNO_3+H_2O$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of sodium hydroxide reacts with 1 mole of nitric acid to produce 1 mole of sodium nitrate and 1 mole of water.

Hence, the products of the reaction are $NaNO_3\text{ and }H_2O$

Answer 2

The  common  neutralization  reaction  that  involve  NaOH  reacting   with  HNO3  produces

NaNO3     and  H2O

The  equation  for  reaction  is      as folows
NaOH  + HNO3  =  NaNO3  +  H2O 
that  is  1  mole  of  NaOH  reacted  with  1  mole  of  HNO3  to  form  1  mole  of  NaNO3  and  1  mole  of  H2O
