To write a balanced chemical equation for hydrochloric acid (HCl) being neutralized by custom hydroxide (MOH) in a double replacement reaction, you would need to identify the chemical formula for the custom hydroxide compound (MOH). Let's assume that custom hydroxide is represented by the generic formula MOH.

The neutralization reaction between HCl and MOH can be represented as:

HCl + MOH -> MCl + H2O

In this reaction, hydrochloric acid (HCl) reacts with custom hydroxide (MOH) to form a salt (MCl) and water (H2O).

Next, you need to balance the equation by ensuring that the number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the equation. In this case, we have one Cl on the left side and one Cl on the right side, as well as one H on the left side and one H on the right side. However, we need to balance the M (metal) atom, so ensure that the number of M atoms is the same on both sides:

HCl + MOH -> MCl + H2O

This represents the balanced chemical equation for the neutralization reaction of hydrochloric acid by custom hydroxide.
