The river Banyupahit originates from the world's largest acidic lake in the crater of Kawah Ijen volcano. A sample of the river water has been taken and observed to have a pH of 3.3, far below the normal pH range of 6-8 for stream water. Determine how many grams of Ca(OH)2 can neutralize a 50. mL river water sample if the acid in the river is sulfuric acid.
Ca(OH)2(s) + H2SO4(aq) → CaSO4(s) + H2O(l)
