Given Equation is ,

Ca ( OH ) 2 + HCl ----------------------- CaCl2. + H2O

Now , let's start balancing by Hit and Trial Method .

So, first listing down the Atoms in each side ,


◻◼Calcium has 1 atom each on reactant as well as product Side . so it is balanced .

◼◻For Chlorine there are 1 atom on reactant side but 2 on product side .

◻◼Oxygen there are 2 on reactant side and 1 on product side.
