Question

If hydrochloric acid (HCl) reacts with the base lithium hydroxide (LiOH), what are the products of the reaction? Write a chemical equation for the reaction.

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer to your question is       HCl  +  LiOH  ⇒   LiCl  +  H₂O

Explanation:

Data

Hydrochloric acid = HCl

Lithium hydroxide = LiOH

Hydrochloric acid is an acid and Lithium hydroxide is a base, when an acid and a base react, the products are a salt and water. This kind of reaction is called a Neutralization reaction.

Balanced chemical reaction

               HCl  +  LiOH  ⇒   LiCl  +  H₂O

The products are water and Lithium chloride
