Hydrochloric acid reacts with sodium hydroxide to form water and sodium chloride. Hydrochloric acid is an extremely acidic, clear, corrosive liquid. Sodium hydroxide is a very basic white solid. what can be known about the reactants of this reaction? a) they will be clear
b) they will not have the properties of sodium hydroxide or hydrochloric acid
c) they will be corrosive
d) they will have the properties of sodium hydroxide or hydrochloric acid

B on edge

Explanation:

They will not have the properties of sodium hydroxide or hydrochloric acid.

a saline water is fed to a reverse osmosis unit at flow rate o rotameter connected to reject (retentate) line reads 8 installed in reject and permeate line reads 15.2 milli siemens/cm and 300 micro siemens/com respectively.

substituting a hydrogen atom with a halogen in a hydrocarbon:

- the single bond remains single. a is wrong.

- the bond with hydrogen is as strong as with a halogen. c is wrong

- a hydrocarbon is saturated if there is no double bond. we do not know that so d is wrong.

- carbon will always have four valence electrons. e is wrong.

by elimination, the correct answer is b. the boiling point of the new compound increases.
