Most Common Suggestions I Make on the Forums.
1. Start by writing a balanced chemical equation.
2. Don't confuse thermodynamic stability with chemical reactivity.
3. Forum Supports LaTex

No, it's not.  A helpful hint is that salts are ionic compounds.

Try writing the equation for the reaction between Hydrogen Chloride (HCl) and Sodium Hydroxide (NaOH
