Detailed Solution

H3PO4+Ca(OH)2CaHPO4+2H2O

(A) n-factor for H3PO4=2 (Since 2H+ ions are replaced)

eq.wt=M2=982=49            

(B) CaHPO4 have only one replacable H+ ion

So nf = 1   and nf of KOH = 1

  eq of CaHPO4 = eq of KOH

 (C) For complete neutralization

   No of eq of H3PO4 = no of eq of Ca(OH)2

       Can be neutralized
