Answer: The correct answer is [tex]Ba(OH)_2+2HCl\rightarrow BaCl_2+2H_2O[/tex]
Explanation:
Neutralization reaction is defined as the reaction in which an acid reacts with a base to produce a salt and also releases water molecule.
The general equation for this reaction follows:
[tex]BOH+HX\rightarrow BX+H_2O[/tex]
The balanced chemical equation for the reaction of barium hydroxide and hydrochloric acid follows:
[tex]Ba(OH)_2+2HCl\rightarrow BaCl_2+2H_2O[/tex]
By Stoichiometry of the reaction:
1 mole of barium hydroxide reacts with 2 moles of hydrochloric acid to produce 1 mole of barium chloride and 2 moles of water molecule.
