Aqueous solutions of hydrochloric acid and barium hydroxide can neutralize each other to produce a compound that is soluble in water. Give the chemical formulas of the anion and cation found in this compound.

Ba^2 + = Barium ion [Cation]

Cl- = Chloride ion [Anion]

Explanation:

Ba (OH) 2 + HCl = BaCl2 + H2O is the reaction that happens.

You make an ionic compound which is soiuble in water Barium Chloride. The cation is Ba^2 + = Barium ion, Cl^ - = Chloride ion

Postive ions are cations and negative ions are anions thus

Ba^2 + = Barium ion [Cation]

Cl- = Chloride ion [Anion]
