An acid and base always react to form a salt and water, and it is called neutralization.

Explanation:

The salt formed in this reaction is sodium chloride, "NaCl". The equation for the reaction is:

"NaOH"(aq) + "HCl"(aq) -> "NaCl"(aq) + "H"_2"O"(l)

The numbers of "Na", "O", "H", and "Cl" atoms on the left and the right sides are as such equal.
