The neutralization reaction between nitric acid (HNO₃) and cesium hydroxide (CsOH) can be represented by the following balanced chemical equation, including physical states:
\[ \text{HNO}_3(aq) + \text{CsOH}(aq) \rightarrow \text{CsNO}_3(aq) + \text{H}_2\text{O}(l) \]
In this equation:
- HNO₃ is in aqueous solution (aq).
- CsOH is in aqueous solution (aq).
- CsNO₃ (cesium nitrate) is formed in aqueous solution (aq).
- H₂O (water) is in the liquid state (l).
