Neutralization reaction takes place between an acid and a base to form salt and water.
In the given reaction the acid is hydrochloric acid HCl and the base is aluminum hydroxide (Al(OH)[tex]_{3}[/tex]).
The correct balanced equation for the neutralization reaction that occurs between aluminum hydroxide and hydrochloric acid can be represented as:
[tex]Al(OH)_{3}(aq)+ 3HCl(aq) --->AlCl_{3}(aq)+3H_{2}O(l)[/tex]
Al(OH)[tex]_{3}[/tex]can give 3 hydroxide, [tex]OH^{-}[/tex]ions which can neutralize the 3 [tex]H^{+}[/tex]ion produced by 3 HCl molecules giving 3 mole of water and the salt aluminum chloride, AlCl[tex]_{3}[/tex].
Therefore the correct option will be.
D. Al(OH)3 + 3 HCl (aq) --> AlCl3(aq) + 3 H2O(l)
