Answer:
According to Avogadro's law which states that equal volumes of all gases under the same condition of temperature and pressure contain equal number of molecules. Therefore, one molecule of hydrogen reacts with one molecule of chlorine to yield two molecules of hydrogen chloride.
The formula of hydrogen chloride is HCl
The particle diagram is found in the attachment below.
Explanation:
The reaction between hydrogen and chlorine to form hydrogen chloride is represented by the equation below
H₂(g) + Cl₂(g) ---> 2HCl(g)
In the reaction equation above, one mole (or one volume) of diatomic hydrogen gas reacts with one mole (or one volume) of diatomic chlorine gas to form two moles (or two volumes) of hydrogen chloride gas. This is in accordance with Avogadro's law which states that equal volumes of all gases under the same condition of temperature and pressure contain equal number of molecules.
Answer: Oxygen
Explanation:
As seen from the balanced equation:
2 moles of hydrogen combine with 1 mole of oxygen or 1 mole of hydrogen combine with 1/2 mole of oxygen.
According to Avogadro's law, equal volumes of gases contain equal number of molecules and hence equal number of moles.
Thus if x moles of both gases are present, x moles of hydrogen will combine with moles of oxygen and
moles of oxygen will be left used and will be in excess.
