They don't react.
Explanation:
Usually what happens in a reaction with two compounds is double replacement (the partner switch), where the anions and cations switch.
for example:
common table salt is NaCl. So if NaCl and NaOH go through double replacement, the end result will be the same because they both have Na as a cation.
