Answer: electrons

Explanation:

Oxidation-reduction reaction or redox reaction is defined as the reaction in which oxidation and reduction reactions occur simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. The oxidation state of the substance increases.

M\rightarrow M^{n+}+ne^-

Reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. The oxidation state of the substance gets reduced.

M^{n+}+ne^-\rightarrow M

A 1.00 L volume of HCl reacted completely with 2.00 L of 1.50 M Ca(OH)2 according to the balanced chemical equation below. 2HCl
wolverine [178]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{6.00 mol/L}}

Explanation:

(a) Balanced equation

2HCl + Ca(OH)₂ ⟶ CaCl₂ + 2H₂O  

(b) Moles of Ca(OH)₂

\text{Moles of base} = \text{2.00L} \times \dfrac{\text{1.50 mol}}{\text{1 L}} = \text{3.000 mol base}

(c) Moles of HCl

\text{Moles of HCl} = \text{3.000 mol base} \times \dfrac{ \text{2 mol HCl}}{\text{1 mol base}} = \text{6.000 mol HCl}

(d) Molar concentration of HCl

\text{Molar concentration} = \dfrac{\text{moles of solute}}{\text{litres of solution}}\\\\c = \dfrac{ n }{ V}\\\\c= \dfrac{ \text{6.000 mol}}{ \text{1.000 L}} = \text{6.00 mol/L}

The molar concentration of the HCl was \boxed{\textbf{6.00 mol/L}}
