Which of the following reactions represents neutralization?

medium Q15 of 15

General Science - Physics (Basics)

AH2SO4 + NaCl → Na2SO4 + HCl

BNaCl + H2O → NaOH + HCl

CHCl + NaOH → NaCl + H2O

DNaOH + CO2 → Na2CO3 + H2O

Step-by-Step Solution

Step 1: Understand neutralization reaction
Neutralization is the reaction between an acid and a base producing salt and water.
Step 2: Analyze the reactions
HCl (acid) reacts with NaOH (base) to form NaCl (salt) and water, which is a classic neutralization reaction; other options do not represent neutralization.
Final Answer:
HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H2O → Option C
Quick Check:
Neutralization reaction = Acid + Base → Salt + Water ✅

Quick Trick: Neutralization always produces salt and water.
