Answer:

Neutralization reaction

Step-by-step explanation:


HNO_3 reacts with NaOH to form sodium nitrite (
NaNO_3) and water.


HNO_3  + NaOH \rightarrow NaNO_3 + H_2O


HNO_3 is a strong acid and NaOH is a strong base.
NaNO_3 is a neutral salt having pH 7.0.

Thus,
HNO_3 and NaOH completely neutalize each other to form salt with pH 7.0.

Reaction in which strong acid strong and base react to form salt is called neutralization reaction.

Answer:

Acid-base

Step-by-step explanation:

HNO₃ + NaOH ⟶ NaNO₃ + H₂O

This is an acid-base reaction, because nitric acid is reacting with a base (NaOH) to form a salt (NaNO₃) and water.

This is also a double decomposition or double displacement reaction, because the positive components (H⁺ and Na⁺) trade partners.

H⁺NO₃⁻ + Na⁺OH⁻ ⟶ Na⁺NO₃⁻ + H⁺-OH⁻
