The balanced reaction is:<span>
MnO2(s) + 4HCl(aq) → Cl2(g) + MnCl2(aq) + 2H2O(l)
We
are given the amount of hydrochloric acid to be used for the reaction. This
will be the starting point for the calculations.
1.82 mol
HCl ( 1 mol Cl2 / 4 mol HCl) = 0.46 mol Cl2
<span>Therefore,
0.46 mol of chlorine gas is produced for the reaction of hydrochloric acid and
manganese oxide.</span></span>
Inert properties
<span>Nitrogen is used to protect steel from water because it has inert properties that make it a good blanketing gas.</span>
You add solute until it can't dissolve anymore.
Answer:
HOCl is the preferred arrangement.
Explanation:
Hypochlorous acid (HOCl or HClO) is a weak acid that contains Hydrogen, Chlorine and oxygen. Generally both are accurate molecular formulars as hey show the exact number of atoms of elements present in the compound.
However the preferred formular is HOCl. The reason for this is because HOCl implies the molecular structure (that is, how the atoms are bonded to each other). The H is bonded to the O and the O in turn is being bonded to the Cl. HClO on the other hand says nothing about the molecular structure.
