 The balanced equation for

 Ca(OH)2  +  H3PO4→  Ca3(PO4)2  +  H2O    is

 3 Ca(OH)2  +2 H3PO4→  Ca3(Po4)2  +  6  H2O

3 moles of  Ca(OH)2  reacted with 2  moles of H3PO4  to  form  1 mole  of  Ca3(PO4)2   and  6  moles  of H2O

Explanation:

A balanced equation is the one which contains equal number of atoms on both reactant and product side.

For example, Ca(OH)_{2} + H_{3}PO_{4} \rightarrow Ca_{3}(PO_{4})_{2} + H_{2}O

Number of atoms on reactant side are as follows.

  • Ca = 1
  • O = 6
  • H = 5
  • P = 1

Number of atoms on product side are as follows.

  • Ca = 3
  • O = 9
  • H = 2
  • P = 2

Therefore, to balance the chemical equation multiply Ca(OH)_{2} by 3 and multiply H_{3}PO_{4} by 2 on reactant side. Whereas multiply H_{2}O by 6 on product side.

Hence, the balanced chemical equation will be as follows.

       3Ca(OH)_{2} + 2H_{3}PO_{4} \rightarrow Ca_{3}(PO_{4})_{2} + 6H_{2}O
