    2 moles of sodium hydroxide will be needed.

    Explanation:

    Sodium hydroxide is a compound which is a base and nitric acid is the acid. The formula of the nitric acid is HNO3 and that of sodium hydroxide is NaOH.

    The reaction between them are

    NaOH + HNO3 = NaNO3 + H2O.

    So here we can see that 1 mole of sodium hydroxide reacts with 1 mole of nitric acid to produce 1 mole of sodium nitrate and 1 mole of water.

    So for 2 moles of nitric acid, 2 moles of sodium hydroxide will be required.
