an ionic equation is a chemical equation in which the electrolytes in aqueous solution are expressed as dissociated ions. ... Additionally, the net charge is the same on both sides of the equation.
Explanation:
So what you end up with is you always end up H+ plus OH- yields H2O, because HCl, and NaOH, since they're strong, they fully dissociate. So the Na+, and the Cl - are spectator ions. So with a strong acid and strong base, the net ion equation is always H+ plus OH- yields H2O.
