First, balance the carbon and hydrogen atoms on both sides of the equation.Then, balance the oxygen atoms. ...Finally, balance anything that has become unbalanced.
<span>Solids have molecules that are held tightly together in close bonds. (positive bonded to a negative) They can bend or vibrate but still stay bonded together closely. Solids have very little kinetic energy. </span>
<span>Liquids have molecules that are held in looser bonds. They move more freely and more randomly that in a solid. It is common for the bonds to be flexible enough to slide over each other. </span>
<span>Gasses have the loosest bond of any state of matter. The loose bonds allow the molecules to move freely and far apart. A gas has the greatest kinetic energy of any state of matter,</span>
You have the stoichiometric equation. This tells you unequivocally that an
18
⋅
g
mass of water, 1 mole, reacts with a
56.07
⋅
g
mass of quicklime to form a
74.09
⋅
g
mass of slaked lime.
If you don't from where I am getting these numbers, you should know, and someone will be willing to elaborate.
Here, you have formed

of quicklime which requires stoichiometric lime AND water. And thus you need a mass of

In practice, of course I would not weigh out this mass. I would just pour

Explanation:
When a strong acid, say 
reacts which a weak base, say 
, the reaction is shown below as:-
The salt further reacts with water as shown below:-
Formation of 
lowers the pH value of the solution as more hydrogen ions leads to less pH.
