Na is a metal :) Have A great Day
Here's how to do it:
<span>Balanced equation first: </span>
<span>Mg + HCl = H2 + MgCl2 unbalanced </span>
<span>Mg + 2 HCl = H2 = MgCl balanced </span>
<span>Therefore 1 mole Mg reacts with 2 moles Hcl. </span>
<span>50g Mg = ? moles (a bit over 2; you work it out) </span>
<span>75 g HCl = ? moles (also a bit over 2; you work it out) </span>
<span>BUT, you need twice the moles HCl; therefore it is the Mg that is in excess. (you can now work out how many moles are in excess, and therefore how much mg is left over). </span>
<span>So, 2 moles HCl produce 1 mole H2(g) </span>
<span>therefore, the amount of H2 produced is half the number of moles of HCl </span>
<span>At STP, there are X litres per mole of gas (look it up - about 22 from memory) </span>
<span>Therefore, knowing the moles of H2, you can calculate the volume</span>
<span>The process of heating water above its boiling point without it boiling and it remaining liquid is called superheating. It is heated under pressure and can be heated to temperatures of 374 degrees Celsius.</span>
