A neutralization reaction between an acid and a metal hydroxide will produce water and a salt. Consider the reaction between sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid. This would be: NaOH + HCl --> NaCl + H2O The resulting products are table salt (NaCl) and water (H2O)
Answer : The correct option is, (a) water and a salt
Explanation :
Neutralization reaction : It is a type of chemical reaction in which an acid react with a base or metal hydroxide to give salt and water as a product that means it reacts to give a neutral solution.
For example :
When sodium hydroxide base react with hydrochloric acid then it react to gives sodium chloride and water as a product.
The balanced chemical reaction will be:
Hence, the correct option is, (a) water and a salt
When edible oils are idle and stored for a long amount of time, they undergo oxidation due to the exposure to oxygen. This oxidation causes rancidity in oils.
