The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and hydrochloric acid (HCl) is:

**NaOH + HCl → NaCl + H₂O**

This equation indicates that one mole of sodium hydroxide reacts with one mole of hydrochloric acid to produce one mole of sodium chloride (table salt) and one mole of water.

So the correct response is:

**NaOH + HCl → NaCl + H₂O**
