Answer: HCI + KOH → KCI + H20
Explanation:
HCI(aq) + KOH(aq) → KCI(aq) + H20(l)
Acid + base → Salt + Water.
The above is a neutralization reaction in which an acid, aqeous HCl reacts completely with an appropriate amount of a base, aqueous KOH to produce salt, aqueous KCl and water, liquid H2O only.
This is a neutralization reaction since, the hydrogen ion, H+, from the HCl is neutralized by the hydroxide ion, OH-, from the KOH to form the water molecule, H2O and salt, KCl only.
