The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between hydrochloric acid  HCl  and sodium hydroxide  NaOH  is:HCl  aq  + NaOH  aq   NaCl  aq  + H2O  l To find the moles of sodium chloride  NaCl  produced, we first need to determine the moles of hydrochloric acid  HCl  in the 50 mL of 0.1 M solution:moles of HCl =  volume in L    molarity moles of HCl =  50 mL   1 L / 1000 mL    0.1 Mmoles of HCl = 0.005 molesSince the reaction between HCl and NaOH is a 1:1 ratio, the moles of NaCl produced will be equal to the moles of HCl reacted:moles of NaCl = moles of HClmoles of NaCl = 0.005 molesSo, 0.005 moles of sodium chloride  NaCl  will be produced when 50 mL of 0.1 M HCl is reacted with excess NaOH.
