I have modified question since question posed is not conveying what you want really and answer for modified question is given below

Explanation:

HCl reacts with hydroxide (KOH, Be(OH)_2 and Ga(OH)_3 ) to form respective salts and water for neutralization reaction.

HCl + KOH rarr KCl + H_2O

Therefore 0.1 mole of KOH is required to neutralise HCl

2HCl + Be(OH)_2 rarr BeCl_2 + 2H_2O

For this reaction 0.05 mole of Be(OH)_2 is required for neutralization of HCl

3HCl + Ga(OH)_3 rarr GaCl_3 + 3H_2O

For this reaction 0.033 mole of Ga(OH)_3 is required for neutralization of HCl

But other compounds do not react hence therefore HCl can not act as the limiting reagent but merely depends on their solubility
