A neutralization reaction between an acid and a metal hydroxide will produce water and a salt. Consider the reaction between sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid. This would be:
NaOH + HCl --> NaCl + H2O
The resulting products are table salt (NaCl) and water (H2O)

Answer : The correct option is, (a) water and a salt

Explanation :

Neutralization reaction : It is a type of chemical reaction in which an acid react with a base or metal hydroxide to give salt and water as a product that means it reacts to give a neutral solution.

For example :

When sodium hydroxide base react with hydrochloric acid then it react to gives sodium chloride and water as a product.

The balanced chemical reaction will be:

\(HCl+NaOH\rightarrow NaCl+H_2O\)

Hence, the correct option is, (a) water and a salt
