Zn+2HCl ----> 2ZnCl2 + H2
For 2.50 g of Zn
Mass per mol = 2.50/molar mass of Zn = 2.50/65.38 = 0.0382 g/mol
There are two moles of ZnCl2 and total mass = 2*0.0382*molar mass of ZnCl2 = 2*0.0382*136.286 = 10.42 g
For 2 g of HCl
Mass per mol = 2/2*molar mass of HCl = 2/ (2*36.46) = 0.0274 g/mol
For the two moles of ZnCl2, mass produced = 2*0.0274*136.286 = 7.48 g
It can be noted that 2 g of HCl produced less amount of ZnCl and thus it is the limiting reagent.
1.) A compound is a substance that originates from two or more separate elements. It shares some similarities with a mixture.
2.) A compound has quite different properties from which it was formed. It also cannot be separated easily. Compounds are formed by chemical reactions.
3.) A pure substance has a constant composition and has consistent properties. It can be a compound or an element, but its composition is constant.
Hope this helps. :)
