NO!!!!

Hydrochloric Acid and Sodium Hydroxide neutralised each other to produce MORE SALT and water. So neither will remove salt (desalinate).

What is the the word equation for hydrochloric acid with sodium hydroxide?

Sodium hydroxide plus hydrochloric acid equals sodium chloride plus water.


What alkali is the best neutralise hydrochloric acid?

Any Group(I) metal alkali Lithium hydroxide (LiOH) Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) The commonest) Potassium hydroxide (KOH) Rubiudium hydroxide (RbOH) Caesium hydroxide (CsOH) Also Group(II) metal hydroxides #e.g. Calcium hydroxide ( Ca(OH)2 ). The will all neutralise hydrochloric acid Here is the general eq'n MOH + HCl = MCl + H2O ( where 'M' is the given metal).


Can you add sodium hydroxide in hydrochloric acid?

Yes, when sodium hydroxide is added to hydrochloric acid, a neutralization reaction occurs to form water and sodium chloride (table salt). This reaction is highly exothermic and can generate heat, so it should be done carefully with proper safety precautions.


What salt is made when sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid react?

Sodium chloride is formed when sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid react. This is a neutralization reaction where the sodium hydroxide (a base) and hydrochloric acid (an acid) combine to form a salt (sodium chloride) and water.


What alkali could be added to a strong acid to neutralise it?

To neutralise a strong acid, you would need a strong alkali (or lots of a weak alkali, but that would be impractical). Potassium hydroxide, sodium hydroxide, lithium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide and magnesium hydroxide would all work.


What chemicals will neutralise an acid?

any base like sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide etc.


What salt is formed when hydrochloric acid is neutralised by sodium hydroxide?

When hydrochloric acid is neutralized by sodium hydroxide, the salt formed is sodium chloride (NaCl).


How may gallons of hydrochloric acid would it take to neutralise 130 gallons of sodium hydroxide?

Also the concentration of HCl and NaOH are needed to be known (not only the amounts) to answer this question.


Which base is to be added to neutralise the effect of hydrochloric acid?

Sodium hydroxide would do. NaOH + HCl -> NaCl + H2O Neutralization reaction producing salt ( common table salt ) and water.


What is sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid the same as?

Sodium hydroxide is a base and hydrochloric acid is an acid. Both are not same.


What 2 substances are formed when hydrochloric acid solution neutralizes sodium hydroxide solution?

When hydrochloric acid solution neutralizes sodium hydroxide solution, water and sodium chloride are formed.
