The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is as follows;
Ca(OH)2 + 2HCl —> CaCl2 + 2H2O
The stoichiometry of Ca(OH)2 to HCl is 1:2.
Number of Ca(OH)2 moles reacted = 0.00100 mol
Therefore number of HCl moles that should react with base is double the amount of moles of base reacted.
Number of acid moles in 25.00 ml
= 0.00100 mol x2 = 0.00200 mol
Correct answer is 0.002 mol
