Clearly, the acid is in deficiency ; i.e. it is the limiting reagent, because the equation above specifies that that 2 equiv of HCl are required for each equiv of metal.
So if

So,

If 1 mol dihydrogen gas occupies

at room temperature and pressure, what will be the VOLUME of gas evolved?
The balanced equation for the above reaction is as follows;
Mg + 2HCl ---> MgCl₂ + H₂
stoichiometry of HCl to MgCl₂ is 2:1
we have been told that Mg is in excess therefore HCl is the limiting reactant
number of HCl moles reacted - 0.100 mol/L x 0.0256 L = 0.00256 mol
according to molar ratio, number of MgCl₂ moles formed - 0.00256/2
Therefore number of MgCl₂ moles formed - 0.00128 mol
mass of MgCl formed - 0.00128 mol x 95.20 g/mol = 0.122 g
Answer:
B. materials change their properties.
Explanation:
In a chemical change, materials often change their properties because a re-arrangement of atoms takes place.
A chemical change is one in which new kind of matter is formed.
It is always accompanied by energy changes.
- Chemical changes are not reversible.
- They lead to the production of new kinds of matter
- It involves mass changes
- Requires considerable amount of energy
