The word neutralization means theproduct is neutral. Acid + base = Salt(neutral) + water HCl + NaOH = NaCl + HOH Hydrochloric acid + Sodium hydroxide = Salt + water
HCL* and no, HCL (hydrochloric acid) is obviously an acid, and not a base. this is because on the pH scale HCL has a rating higher than 7pH, making it not a base nor neutral. ;)
As the name hydrochloric acid might indicate, it is an acid.
Strong acid with strong base always ends with neutral water and the resulting ions Na+ and Cl-, both neutral as well!
Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is a strong acid, and when reacted with a strong base will give a neutral salt. When reacted with a weak base it will give an acid salt. Example, HCl + NH3 => NH4Cl.Carbonic acid (H2CO3) is a weak acid and is actually CO2 + H2O. When reacted with a strong base, it will give an alkaline salt and when reacted with a weak base will give a solution the pH of which will depend on the Kb and Ka of the reactants.
Calcium chloride solution is neutral.

Our stomachs are stronger acidic (pH 2!) from hydrochloric acid.

Sodium Chloride (NaCl) solution is neutral because Sodium has a valency of +1 and Chlorine has a valency of -1 which means when they form a bond it is neutral. e.g. 1 - 1 = 0 Therefore, NaCl solution is neutral. If you are referring to it being neutral in terms of pH, it is because the Na+ and Cl- ions are pH neutral. In acid base terms NaCl is the salt of a strong acid (hydrochloric acid HCl) and a strong base (NaOH).
