Hydrochloric Acid and Barium Hydroxide

2HCl + Ba(OH)2 → BaCl2 + 2H2O

Übersicht

Hydrochloric acid reacts with barium hydroxide to form barium chloride and water. Barium hydroxide is one of the few strongly basic alkaline earth hydroxides that is significantly soluble in water, making it useful for titrations. The reaction is a standard strong acid-strong base neutralization.
