    Neutralization equation:

    HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H₂O + Heat

    Heat would calculated through,

    Q = m. c. ΔT

    Explanation:

    When aqueous sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid react with each other a neutralization reaction occur. It produces water and salt. The salt would be sodium chloride.

    Chemical equation:

    HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H₂O + Heat

    The heat produces can be calculated through the given formula.

    Q = m. c. ΔT

    Q = amount of heat produces

    m = total mass of solution

    ΔT = change in temperature of solution

    C = specific heat capacity of solution

    As the mostly solutions are water so we take the specific heat capacity of water which is 4.186 j/g.°C
