Explanation / Answer

Zn(s) + 2 HCl (aq) -> ZnCl2(aq) + H2(g)

There are 6M HCl and all of them were 10.00mL volumes (same)

For trial-1

Mass of zinc used = 0.250g

Volume of 6.00 M HCl used =10ml

Molar mass of zinc = 65.3965g/mol

Moles of Zn reactant = 0.250/65.3965 = 0.00382 moles

Moles of HCl reactant = 6M x 0.01L = 0.060 moles

Zn is limiting reagent

There is a 1:1 ratio between moles of zinc and moles of H2, therefore the number of moles of Zn = moles of H2

So, moles of H2 = 0.00382 moles

Volume of gas produced at initial room temperature of 21.50C

PV=nRT

R =0.08206 Latm/mol-K

V = 0.00382 moles x 0.08206 Latm/molK x 294.5/1

V = 0.092316L = 92.31ml (Theoretical value)

Lab value = 92.2ml

Percent error = ((Theoretical value – accepted value)/accepted value) x 100

Percent error = (92.31ml - 92.2ml/92.2 ml) x 100

                       = (0.11/92.2) x 100 = 0.12%

For trial-2

Mass of zinc used = 0.500 g

Volume of 6.00 M HCl used =10ml

Molar mass of zinc = 65.3965g/mol

Moles of Zn reactant = 0.500g/65.3965 g/mol= 0.00765 moles

Moles of HCl reactant = 6M x 0.01L = 0.060 moles

Zn is limiting reagent

There is a 1:1 ratio between moles of zinc and moles of H2, therefore the number of moles of Zn = moles of H2

So, moles of H2 = 0.00765 moles moles

Volume of gas produced at initial room temperature of 21.50C

PV=nRT

R =0.08206 Latm/mol-K

V = 0.00765 moles x 0.08206 Latm/molK x 294.5/1

V = 0.18487L= 185ml (Theoretical value)

Lab value = 184.5ml

Percent error = ((Theoretical value – accepted value)/accepted value) x 100

Percent error = (185ml – 184.5ml/184.5 ml) x 100

                       = (0.5/184.5) x 100 = 0.27%
