The chemical reaction would be:

2Au + 2HCl = 2AuCl + H2

First, we need to determine the mass of gold that is used in the reaction. We do this by multiplying the volume of the block of gold to its density. We do as follows:

Mass of Au = (3.2 cm) (3.8 cm) (2.8 cm) ( 1 mL / 1 cm^3) ( 19.3 g/ mL) = 657.1264 g Au

From the molar mass of Au which is 197 g/mol, we convert the mass of Au to moles and relate HCl by using the balanced reaction. We do as follows:

657.1264 g Au ( 1 mol / 197 g ) ( 2 mol HCl / 2 mol Au ) ( 36.46 g / mol ) = 121.62 g HCl

How is the information about cats found in myths and fairy tales and legends different from information gathered through science
forsale [732]
Scirnce uses a method of testing to declare rules or facts. myth and fairy tales have no way of being tested. cats are a physical creature we can see, test, and observe. a mythical idea canny be tested. for example: mermaids cannot be tested as we have none to observe.
