HClO and CaHClO

H2O and Ca(OH)3

H3PO4 and Ca(PO3)2

Step-by-step explanation:

The given substance is Ca(OH)2 which is a base.

To neutralise a base an acid is required.

Among the given options,

HCl and H3PO4 are the acids.

The salts foremd when calcium hydroxide reacts with the respective acids are CaCl2 and Ca3(PO4)2.

But among the given options, only the forst option that is
