Answer:

Mass = 11 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Zn = 5 g

Mass of HCl = 50 g

Mass of hydrogen gas produced = 6 g

Mass of zinc chloride produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

Zn + 2HCl    →   ZnCl₂ + H₂

Number of moles of Zn:

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Number of moles = 5 g / 65.38 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.08 mol

Number of moles of HCl :

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Number of moles = 50 g / 36.5 g/mol

Number of moles = 1.4 mol

Now we will compare the moles of both reactant with zinc chloride.

              Zn           :           ZnCl₂

               1             :             1

              0.08       :        0.08

            HCl          :         ZnCl₂

              2            :           1

             1.4          :         1/2×1.4 =0.7 mol

The number of moles of zinc chloride produced by Zn are less so it will limiting reactant.

Mass of zinc chloride:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.08 mol × 136.3 g/mol

Mass = 11 g

Gaseous hydrogen iodide is placed in a closed container at 425∘C, where it partially decomposes to hydrogen and iodine: 2HI(g)⇌H
murzikaleks [220]

Answer:

0.0184

Explanation:

Let's consider the following reaction at equilibrium.

2 HI(g) ⇌ H₂(g) + I₂(g)

The concentration equilibrium constant (Kc) is equal to the product of the concentration of the products raised to their  stoichiometric coefficients divided by the product of the concentration of the reactants raised to their  stoichiometric coefficients.

Kc = [H₂] × [I₂] / [HI]²

Kc = (4.78 × 10⁻⁴) × (4.78 × 10⁻⁴) / (3.52 × 10⁻³)²

Kc = 0.0184
