Question

Calculate the number of moles of hydrogen chloride produced from 10 moles of hydrogen

Answer 1

Answer: The number of moles of hydrogen chloride produced are 20 moles.

Explanation:

For the reaction of hydrogen chloride from hydrogen and chlorine, the equation follows:

$H_2(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightarrow 2HCl(g)$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of hydrogen produces 2 moles of hydrogen chloride.

So, 10 moles of hydrogen will produce = $\frac{2}{1}\times 10=20$ moles of hydrogen chloride.

Hence, the number of moles of hydrogen chloride produced are 20 moles.

Answer 2

10 mol H2 X 2 mOL  HCI/1 Mol  H2 = 20 mol HCL
