The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between sulfuric acid (H2SO4) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) is:

H2SO4 + 2NaOH -> Na2SO4 + 2H2O

From the balanced equation, we can see that 1 mole of sulfuric acid reacts with 2 moles of sodium hydroxide.

Therefore, the number of moles of sulfuric acid needed to neutralize 0.15 moles of sodium hydroxide is:

0.15 moles NaOH * (1 mole H2SO4 / 2 moles NaOH) = 0.075 moles H2SO4
