The products of the reaction of a strong acid and a strong base are water and a "salt". Which "salt" is the product of the following reaction? HCl + KOH -> H2O + "salt"
HCl + KOH ---> H2O + Salt
Acid and Base reaction is a double displacement reaction
Switching the places of cations in the reactants side (left hand side of the arrow) will give us products (compounds on right hand side of the arrow)
In HCl : H+ is the cation, Cl- is the anion
In KOH: K+ is the cation, OH- is the anion
water: HOH: H2O
salt: KCl
