Answer: HCl+H2O→H3O++Cl- Hydrochloric acid in water increases the concentration of H3O+ ions and is therefore an acid. NaOH+H2O→Na++OH- Sodium hydroxide in water increases the concentration of OH- ions and is therefore a base.

It will produce water and salt, as they are an acid and a base so a neutralization reaction will take place.

Hope it helps..
