Question
metallic zinc reacts with aqueous HCL.
Zn (s) + 2HCL(aq)---> ZnCl 2 (aq)+ H2 (g)
what volume of 2.5M HCL, in milliliters, is required to convert 12.9 G of Zn completely to products?
Explanation / Answer
Zn (s) + 2HCL(aq)---> ZnCl 2 (aq)+ H2 (g)
no of moles of Zn = W/G.A.Wt
= 12.9/65.4 = 0.197 moles
from balanced equation
1 mole of Zn react with 2 moles of HCl
0.197 moles of Zn react with = 2*0.197/1 = 0.394moles of HCl
no of moles of HCl = molarity * volume in L
0.394 = 2.5*volume in L
volume in L = 0.394/2.5 = 0.1576L = 157.6ml of HCl >>>>answer
