Suppose you initially have equal amounts of the reactants: 1 g of zinc (65.38 g/mol) and 1 g of HCl (36.46 g/mol). The reaction would be:

Zn + 2 HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂

Moles Zn: 1/65.38 = 0.0153 mol
Moles HCl: 1/36.46 = 0.0274 mol

Moles of HCl needed:
0.0153 mol Zn (2 mol HCl/1 mol Zn) = 0.0306 moles HCl needed

Since the available moles of HCl is lesser than the theoretical amount of HCl needed, then the<em> limiting reactant is HCl in this reaction</em>.

200.0 mL OF A 5.10 M solution are diluted to 500.0 mL. What is the concentration of the resulting solution? *
erastova [34]

Answer:

Concentration of the resulting solution = 2.04 M

Explanation:

<u>Data:</u>

M1 = 5.10 M

V1 = 200.0 mL

V2 = 500.0 mL

M2 = ?

By modifying the volume of solution, keeping the amount of solute constant, the concentration changes. To perform the calculations, the equation will be:

M1*V1=M2*V2

Where M1 is the initial concentration of the solution, M2 the final concentration and V is the value of the volumes of the initial and final solution.

Clearing the value of M2 from the equation and replacing the values ​​we have:

M2=\frac{M1*V1}{V2} =\frac{5.10M*200mL}{500mL} =2.04M
