The steps to balancing a neutralization reaction when given a verbal description can be summarized as follows: write the chemical formulas for the reagents. write the chemical formulas for the products. balance each element on each side of the reaction arrow by adding coefficients to the reactants and products. the antacid brioschi, which has been used to relieve heartburn, is mainly sodium bicarbonate. predict the products, then write the balanced neutralization reaction for the antacid brioschi in the stomach where the main acid present is hydrochloric acid, hcl. express your answer as a chemical equation.

NaHCO3 + HCl ——-> NaCl + H2O + CO2

Explanation:

A neutralization reaction is a chemical reaction between an alkali and an acid to give salt and water as the product.

In the case of carbonates and bicarbonates, an additional product is added. This additional product is carbon iv oxide.

Hence a neutralization reaction involving an acid and a carbonate or bicarbonate would yield water, carbon iv oxide and a salt as the product.

When brioschi reacts with hydrochloric acid, the products are sodium chloride, water and carbon iv oxide.

The equation of the reaction is shown below:

NaHCO3 + HCl ——> NaCl + H2O + CO2
