The chemical formula below shows how salt is produced.

hcl + naoh > nacl + h2o

which substances are the reactants?

reactants: HCl and NaOH

Explanation:

A chemical reaction or equation can be explained with reference of two components: the reactants and products

Reactants are atoms, molecules or ions that are present of the left side of the equation. These could either be a single entity  which can break or decompose under a given conditions or they could combine with other entities appropriately to form new molecules, atoms, ions etc. These new molecules occupy the right side of the reaction and are termed as Products.

The given reaction is and acid-base neutralization reaction

HCl + NaOH > NaCl + H2O  

Reactants:

HCl, hydrochloric acid

NaOH, sodium hydroxide

Products:

NaCl, sodium chloride

H2O, water

pure water does not conduct electricity very well. however, when certain substances are dissolved in water, the solution does conduct electricity. you can make a simple device that shows how well a solution conducts electricity. this device uses a flashlight bulb to indicate how well the solution conducts electricity. the better the solution conducts electricity, the brighter the bulb will glow.
