<u>Step 1: Define</u>
[RxN - Unbalanced] Mg (s) + HCl (aq) → MgCl (aq) + H₂ (g)
↓
[RxN - Balanced] 2Mg (s) + 2HCl (aq) → 2MgCl (aq) + H₂ (g)
[Given] 3.25 mol Mg
[Solve] x g HCl
<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>
[RxN] 2 mol Mg → 2 mol HCl
[PT] Molar Mass of H - 1.01 g/mol
[PT] Molar Mass of Cl - 35.45 g/mol
Molar Mass of HCl - 1.01 + 35.45 = 36.46 g/mol
<u>Step 3: Stoich</u>
- [S - DA] Set up:
- [S - DA] Multiply/Divide [Cancel out units]:
<u>Step 4: Check</u>
<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.</em>
127.61 g HCl ≈ 128 g HCl
