C8H7COOH + NaOH --> C8H7COONa + H2O
This is an acid base neutralisation reaction.

It's unusual to have an organic molecule that size written as an empirical formula for a reaction problem. There are just too many isomers it could be. Do you know anything about the active groups or structure?

I don't understand what you are asking? SOrry,
this might help
C9H9O5Na- would be the equation because no atoms are lost or gained

for any carboxylic acid the reaction with NaOH is
RCOOH + NaOH ---------------------> RCOONa + H2O
Its a reversible reaction
