While investigating mole ratios, a group of students collected data for the chemical reaction 2 NaOH(aq) + CaCl2(aq) ® 2 NaCl(aq) + Ca(OH)2(s). The students wondered what would happen if an excess of NaOH was used. Their teacher approved a procedure in which solutions containing 3.00 g of NaOH and 2.10 g of CaCl2 were combined. Based on the quantities of these reactants, what amount of Ca(OH)2(s) is produced?
