Galliunm chloride is formed bb the reaction of 2.6 L of a 1.44 M solution of HCl according to the following equation: 2Ga +
6HCl ? 2GaCl3 + 3H2
(a) Outline the steps neccessary to determine the number of moles and mass of H2
(b)Perform the calculations outlined

Respuesta :

Answer:

3.8 g H₂

Explanation:

(a)

1. Calculate the moles of HCl that react.

2. Convert the moles of HCl into moles of H₂ using the molar ratio

3. Convert moles of H₂ into mass using the molecular weight (2.02 g/mol)

(b)

1. Calculate the moles of HCl that react.

(1.44mol/L)(2.6L) = 3.744mol HCl

2. Convert the moles of HCl into moles of H₂ using the molar ratio

(3.744mol HCl)(3H₂/6HCl) = 1.872 mol H₂

3. Convert moles of H₂ into mass using the molecular weight (2.02 g/mol)

(1.872 mol H₂)(2.02 g/mol) = 3.8 g H₂
