Hey there!:

a) 2 HCl + Ca(OH)₂ = CaCl₂ + 2 H₂O

2 moles of HCl reacts with 1 mole of calcium hydroxide it forms calcium chloride , which is precipitate and forms water

_____________________________________________________

b) Sr(OH)₂ + 2 HNO₃ = Sr(NO₃)₂ + 2 H₂O

One mole of strontium hydroxide reacts with 2 moles of nitric acid produces strontium nitrate and water as shown above

* Acids are HCl and HNO₃ and bases are Ca(OH)₂ and Sr(OH)₂

I hope this will help !!
