I will solve this question assuming the reaction equation look like this:
<span>MnO2 + 4 HCl ---> MnCl2 + Cl2 + 2 H2O.
</span>
For every one molecule of MnO2 used, there will be one molecule of Cl2 formed. If the molecular mass of MnO2 is 87g/mol and molecular mass of Cl2 is <span> 73.0 g/mol, the mass of MnO2 needed would be:
Cl mass/Cl molecular mass * MnO2 molecular mass=
25g/ (73g/mol) * (87g/mol) * 1/1= 29.8 grams</span>
A change in the force of gravity on an object will affect its weight.
