Answer:

Option C; NONE.

Explanation:

A chemical reaction forms new chemicals called the products from the initial chemicals called the reactants. The reaction between an acid and a base is called neutralization, and the products formed are water and a salt.

When hy­drochlo­ric acid and sodi­um hy­drox­ide is mixed together, they in­ter­act, and re­sult­ in salt and a release of heat.

The re­sult of the in­ter­ac­tion of these two high­ly ag­gres­sive com­pounds is ta­ble salt and wa­ter, these resulting com­pounds are ul­ti­mate­ly harm­less, and even ben­e­fi­cial, to hu­man be­ings.

Therefore, NO TOXIC GAS WOULD BE FORMED BY MIXING HYDROCHLORIC ACID WITH SODIUM HYDROXIDE.
