Writing a Chemical Equation for NaOH and nitric acid

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 12-01-07] [Hit: ]
when acids are neutralized, one of the products is water.NO is nitric oxide. If you were using that instead of nitric acid,Always make sure that there are the same number of each element on each side.-You got the wrong formula for nitric acid.......
I'm just checking my answers for a chem course im taking and i'm not sure on this answer i got.
would the chemical equation for NaOH neutralizing nitric acid (NO) be NaOh + 2NO ----> 2NaO + 2NOH? If that isn't right can you explain how you got your answer or help me understand what i did wrong please. Thanks!

First of all, nitric acid is HNO3. Acids usually start with a H. Bases usually end with an OH. So here is the balanced equation:

HNO3 + NaOH -----> NaNO3 + H2O

Often, when acids are neutralized, one of the products is water.

NO is nitric oxide. If you were using that instead of nitric acid, the result would be as follows:

NO + NaOH -------> NOH + NaO

Always make sure that there are the same number of each element on each side.

You got the wrong formula for nitric acid.
It's HNO3

so the equation goes:
NaOH + HNO3 ----> NaNO3 + H2O
