The correct Answer is:
To determine whether the statement "Sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid neutralise each other and form salt and water" is true or false, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Identify the substances involved - Sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is a base. - Hydrochloric acid (HCl) is an acid. ### Step 2: Understand the concept of neutralization - A neutralization reaction occurs when an acid reacts with a base to produce salt and water. ### Step 3: Write the neutralization reaction - The reaction between sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid can be represented as: \[ \text{NaOH} + \text{HCl} \rightarrow \text{NaCl} + \text{H}_2\text{O} \] - Here, sodium chloride (NaCl) is the salt formed, and water (H₂O) is also produced. ### Step 4: Analyze the products of the reaction - From the reaction, we see that the products are indeed salt (NaCl) and water (H₂O). ### Conclusion - Since sodium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid react to form salt and water, the statement is **True (T)**. ### Final Answer - Mark the statement as **T** (True). ---
