What are the products when hydrobromic acid is mixed with sodium hydroxide
A
H2O and NaBr
B
HBr and NaOH
C
OBr and NaH
D
Na and BrOH
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Aqueous hydrobromic acid (HBr) will react with solid sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to produce aqueous sodium bromide (NaBr) and liquid water (H2O).

Detailed explanation-2: -What type of reaction is HBr + NaOH. The HBr + NaOH reaction is classified as an acid-base neutralization reaction because the strong acid, Hydrogen Bromide (HBr) neutralizes the strong base, Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH).

Detailed explanation-3: -Hydrobromic acid, HBr, is a strong acid and sodium hydroxide, NaOH, is a strong base, so right from the start, you know that you’re dealing with a neutralization reaction.

Detailed explanation-4: -Sodium reacts with water to form sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas.

Detailed explanation-5: -So, hydrochloric acid reacts with sodium hydroxide solution to form sodium chloride and water. This reaction can be represented as: Hydrochloric acid + Sodium hydroxide → Sodium chloride + Water.
