Let's try hydrochloric acid here and see.

NaOH + HCl --> NaCl + H2O

No. It causes a neutralization reaction producing a salt and more water!

Who is chemical neutralized caustic soda?

A strong acid would do. We will show sulfuric acid doing this. 2NaOH + H2SO4 -> Na2SO4 + 2H2O The reaction produces a slat, sodium sulfate, and water and is called a neutralization reaction.


How do acids react with caustic soda?

Acids typically react with caustic soda (sodium hydroxide) to form water and a salt. The acid donates a proton (H+) to the hydroxide ion (OH-) in caustic soda, resulting in the formation of water (H2O) and a salt specific to the acid used. This reaction is known as neutralization.

Why pour acid into water while stirring but never add water to acid?

Pouring acid into water while stirring helps to dilute and disperse the acid gradually, reducing the likelihood of splashing or causing a violent reaction. Adding water to acid could cause a sudden release of heat, which can cause the mixture to splash and potentially result in burns or an explosion.

How much the quantity of caustic soda required for neutralizing hydrochloric acid?

the same amount.i.e.,hydrochloric acid reacts with caustic soda in the ratio 1/1.so if their concentrations are the same the amount of caustic soda required to neutralize hydrochloric acid will be same as that of amount of hydrochloric acid.
