Solid zinc oxide (ZnO) is added to hydrochloric acid (HCl) to form zinc chloride (ZnCl2) in water (H2O). How many moles of zinc

chloride (ZnCl2) will be produced when 112 grams of zinc oxide (ZnO) is used?
ZnO + 2HCl --> ZnCl2 + H2O

Answer:

1.376 moles ZnCl₂

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

ZnO + 2HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂O

<em>1 mole of ZnO reacts with 2 moles of HCl to produce 1 mole of ZnCl₂.</em>

To solve this question we need to convert the mass of ZnO to moles using its molar mass (ZnO = 81.38g/mol). The moles of ZnO added are the moles of ZnCl₂ produced (1mole of ZnO produce 1 mole of ZnCl₂):

<em>Moles ZnO = Moles ZnCl₂:</em>

112g ZnO * (1mol / 81.38g) = 1.376 moles ZnCl₂

Select the correct answer.<br> Which characteristic is a property of water?
Dafna1 [17]

Answer: A. It is made of polar molecules.

Explanation:

A polar molecule refers to a molecule that has a covalent bond but has an uneven distribution of electrons due to an atom in the molecule having strong electronegativity which will attract more of the electrons from the other atom.

Water is such a molecule because Oxygen has strong electronegativity which leads to electrons being pulled to it.

KatRina [158]
The answer is "Rising and expanding air or atmosphere cooling".
To form a cloud the air must be cooled to the temperature of dew point. when there is expansion of air, it cools to the dew point and thus the formation of cloud happens. This process is very common and used for the formation of clouds.

What is the result in the double displacement reaction of hydrochloric acid and
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

Lithium chloride (LiCl), carbon dioxide, and water

Explanation:

Li₂CO₃ + HCl ⇒ LiCl + CO₂ + H₂O

When lithium carbonate reacts with hydrochloric acid, lithium chloride, water, and bubbles of carbon dioxide gas are given off. This is the result of a double displacement reaction followed by a decomposition reaction.

Hope that helps.
