Answer:

Dissociation

Explanation:

When HCl and NaOH are mixed with water, the HCl and NaOH molecules interacts with the water, forming what is known as ions. Ions are atoms with electric charge.

When HCl, it forms H+ and Cl-. The mixture is acid because what define a mixture as acid is the amount of H+ ions.

When NaOH mixes with water, it forms Na+ and OH- ions. The amount of OH- ions in a mixture defines it as basic.
