Write the balanced chemical equation for the neutralization reaction that occurs

Question

Write the balanced chemical equation for the neutralization reaction that occurs when an aqueous solution of nitric acid (HNO3) is mixed with an aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide (NaOH).
Indicate the physical states of the reactants and products using the abbreviations (s),(l) ,(g) or (aq) for solids, liquids, gases, or aqueous solutions, respectively.

Express your answer as a chemical equation.

Explanation / Answer

sol. the balanced eq. HNO3 + NaOH ===> NaNO3 + H2O. The double displacement reaction the two previous posters put up are correct. because The Hydrogen, Sodium ion, Nitrate Polyatomic Ion and the Hydroxide Polyatomic ion all have valence +/-1 so there's no need to use subscripts .
