Answer: 65.38g of Ca(OH)2 is needed

Explanation:

From The equation of reaction

2 HCl + Ca ( OH ) 2 ⟶ CaCl 2 + 2 H 2 O

NB: Molar mass of HCl= 1+35.5=36.5

Ca(OH)2= 74

From The stoichiometric equation

2mol of HCl(36.5×2=73) require 1mol of Ca(OH)2 (74g)

Hence 64.5g of HCl will require 64.5×74/73= 65.38g of Ca(OH)2
