Moles of Ca (OH)₂ required to completely neutralize 3.26 mol of HC₂H₃O₂ : 1.63
A reaction coefficient is a number in the chemical formula of a substance involved in the reaction equation. The reaction coefficient is useful for equalizing reagents and products.
Reaction
2HC₂H₃O₂ + Ca(OH)₂ → Ca(C₂H₃O₂)₂ + 2H₂O
mol of HC₂H₃O₂ = 3.6
From equation above, mol ratio of HC₂H₃O₂ : Ca(OH)₂ = 2 : 1, so mol Ca(OH)₂ :
[tex]\tt mol~Ca(OH)_2=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3.26=1.63[/tex]
