Chromium is a chemical element with symbol Cr and atomic number 24. It is the first element in group 6. It is a steely-grey, lustrous, hard and brittle metal which takes a high polish, resists tarnishing, and has a high melting point.
So, water reacts with hydrochloric acid in the following formula
H2O + HCl —-> H3O+ + Cl-
We can visualize that when the two react, the hydrogen ions is taken on by the water molecule. This satisfies one of the definitions for a base
Bronsted acids = anything that donates a proton (H+ ion)
Bronsted bases = anything that accepts a proton (H+ ion)
So, as we can see, that is exactly what is happening. The Cl- and H+ detach and then the water takes on that extra H+.
H3O+ is what we call a hydronium ion
The volume of concentrated HCl : 2.073 ml
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
37% HCl by mass; density 1.19 g/mL
Required
The volume of concentrated HCl
Solution
Conversion to molarity :
37% x 1.19 g/ml =0.4403 g/ml
g/ml to mol/L :
=0.4403 g/ml x 1000 ml/L : 36.5 g/mol
=12.06 mol/L
or we can use formula :
Dilution formula :
M₁V₁=M₂V₂
12.06 M x V₁ = 0.1 M x 0.25 L
V₁ = 0.0021 L = 2.073 ml
