Answer:
0.4
Explanation:
Given data:
Number of moles of SrCl₂ consumed = ?
Mass of ZnCl₂ produced = 54 g
Solution:
Chemical equation:
ZnSO₄ + SrCl₂ → SrSO₄ + ZnCl₂
Number of moles of ZnCl₂:
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 54 g/136.3 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.4 mol
Now we will compare the moles of ZnCl₂ with SrCl₂ from balance chemical equation.
ZnCl₂ : SrCl₂
1 : 1
0.4 : 0.4
Thus when 54 g of ZnCl₂ produced 0.4 moles of SrCl₂ react.
