Answer:

The answer to your question is Ba(OH)₂  + 2HClO₄   ⇒   Ba(ClO₄)₂  +  2H₂O

Explanation:

Reactants

Barium hydroxide

Perchloric acid

Formula

Barium hydroxide = Ba(OH)₂

Perchloric acid = HClO₄

Equation (it is a double replacement)

               Ba(OH)₂  +  HClO₄   ⇒   Ba(ClO₄)₂  +  H₂O

           Reactants              Elements         Products

                  1                            Ba                     1

                  1                            Cl                      2

                 3                             H                      2

                  6                            O                     9

This reaction is unbalanced

2) Balance the chemical reaction

              Ba(OH)₂  + 2HClO₄   ⇒   Ba(ClO₄)₂  +  2H₂O

           Reactants              Elements         Products

                  1                            Ba                     1

                 2                             Cl                     2

                 4                             H                      4

                10                            O                     10

Now the reaction is balanced
