Ca(OH)2 + H2SO4 ⟶2H2O + CaSO4 What volume of 1.45 M Ca(OH)2 is needed to react with 25.0 moles of H2SO4?

We need 17.2 L of Ca(OH)2

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Concentration of Ca(OH)2 = 1.45 M

Moles of H2SO4 = 25.0 moles

Step 2: The balanced equation

Ca(OH)2 + H2SO4 ⟶2H2O + CaSO4

Step 3: Calculate moles Ca(OH)2

For 1 mol Ca(OH)2 we need 1 mol H2SO4 to produce 2 moles H2O and 1 mol CaSO4

For 25.0 moles H2SO4 we'll need 25.0 moles Ca(OH)2 to produce 50 moles H2O and 25.0 moles CaSO4

Step 4: Calculate volume of Ca(OH)2

Volume Ca(OH)2 = moles Ca(OH)2 / concentration Ca(OH)2

Volume Ca(OH)2 = 25.0 moles / 1.45 M

Volume Ca(OH)2 = 17.2 L

We need 17.2 L of Ca(OH)2
