Should not you tell us?

Explanation:

$4 K O H (a q) + 2 B a C l_{2} (a q) \to 4 K C l (a q) + 2 B a {(O H)}_{2}$ $4KOH(aq) + 2BaCl_2(aq) rarr 4KCl(aq) + 2Ba(OH)_2$ ...or more simply....

$2 K O H (a q) + B a C l_{2} (a q) \to 2 K C l (a q) + B a {(O H)}_{2} (s) ⏐ ↓$ $2KOH(aq) + BaCl_2(aq)rarr 2KCl(aq) + Ba(OH)_2(s)darr$

And if you add up the product masses, these are precisely and necessarily equal to the reactant masses, i.e. $320.5 \cdot g$ $320.5*g$ .. All chemical reactions obey this principle.

For each equation, $garbage out equals garbage in$ $"garbage out equals garbage in"$ ...i.e mass is conserved, and also charge is conserved....
