Gerald's science teacher mixed room temperature samples of hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide in a large beaker. The solutio

n still looked clear like water, but when the students carefully touched the beaker one at a time, it felt warm to the touch.

 <span>HCl is a strong acid and NaOH is a strong base, so mixing them together will produce a lot of heat. The products are salt or Sodium chloride (NaCl) and water (H2O). Since one is an acid and one is a base they will neutralize each other. I hope this helps</span>

Answer:

The beaker feels warm because is an exothermic reaction

Explanation:

An exothermic reaction is one that releases energy, in this case, through heat. Then, when HCl, a strong acid, and NaOH, a strong base, are mixed together it is produced a salt and water with a release of energy. The reaction is expressed as:

HCl + NaOH ------> NaCl + HCl + Energy

This happens because the energy of the products is lower than the energy of the reactants.

How are electrons excited and what happens when the electrons relax
serg [7]
<span>When electrons are excited they get more energy and jump to higher orbitals. As they loose that energy that had excited them in the beginning, they tend to return to their original orbitals and the color that is given off is when this is occurring. </span>
