HCl is a strong acid and KOH is a strong base. HCl dissociates to form H⁺ ions and Cl⁻ ions and KOH dissociates to give out K⁺ and OH⁻ ions.
When H⁺ and OH⁻ ions react they form H₂O molecules which are neutral.K⁺ ions and Cl⁻ ions form KCl salts.
the balanced equation for the reaction is as follows
HCl + KOH ----> KCl + H₂O
products are therefore KCl and H₂O
