1.2 mol HCl and 3.9 mol NaOH react to this equation,

HCl + NaOH=NaCl + H20
If the limited reactant id HCl, calculate the amount of NaCl formed in moles.

Please help and explain how to solve this so I may understand it better please and thank you.

I = initial; i.e., start
C = change
E = equilibrium; end

.......HCl + NaOH ==> NaCl + H2O
I......1.2...3.9.......0......0
C.....-1.2..-1.2......+1.2...+1.2
E......0.....2.7.......1.2....1.2
