Group 2a metal oxides react with water to produce hydroxides. when 35.55 g of cao are placed into 125 ml of water (d= 1.000 g/ml), how many grams of ca(oh)2 can be produced? **i just need with balancing the equation.

Answer is: mass of calcium hydroxide is 46.98 grams.
Balanced chemical reaction: CaO + H₂O → Ca(OH)₂.
m(CaO) = 35.55 g.
n(CaO) = m(CaO) ÷ M(CaO).
n(CaO) = 35.55 g ÷ 56 g/mol.
n(CaO) = 0.634 mol; limiting reactant.
m(H₂O) = 125 mL · 1.000 g/mL.
m(H₂O) = 125 g.
n(H₂O) = 125 g ÷ 18 g/mol.
n(H₂O) = 6.94 mol.
From chemical reaction: n(CaO) : n(Ca(OH)₂) = 1 : 1.
n(Ca(OH)₂) = 0.634 mol.
m(Ca(OH)₂) = 0.634 mol · 74.1 g/mol = 46.98 g.
