Answer:

HCl (aq) + KOH (aq) --------> KCl (aq) + H2O (l) [balanced molecular equation]

Step-by-step explanation:

Balanced molecular equation has all the components of reaction written as "molecules" thus the name molecular (the other equations break appropriate components into ions, those are total ionic or net ionic equation)

We know hydrochloride acid solution is written as HCl (aq) and potassium hydroxide solution is written as KOH (aq). We know from our knowledge that when acids react with bases they make salt and water, so now we react!

HCl (aq) + KOH (aq) --------> KCl (aq) + H2O (l) [balanced molecular equation]
