Expert Solution
Step 1

The reaction taking place is given as,

Chemistry homework question answer, step 1, image 1

Given : Mass of Ca(OH)2 taken = 39.32 g

And mass of H2SO4 taken = 82.94 g

Since mass = moles X molar mass

=> 39.32 = moles of Ca(OH)2 taken X 74.0 

=> Moles of Ca(OH)2 taken = 0.53135 mol approx.

And 82.94 = moles of H2SO4 taken X 98.08 

=> Moles of H2SO4 taken = 0.8456 mol approx.
