PLS HELP Students in a chemistry class added 5 g of Zinc (Zn) to 50 g of hydrochloric acid (HCl). A chemical reaction occurred t

hat produced zinc chloride (ZnCl2) and 6 g of hydrogen gas (H2).
Zn+ HCl → ZnCl2 + H2

What is the mass of Zinc Chloride (ZnCl2)?

A. 49 g

B. 55 g

C. 61 g

D. Not enough information to determine the mass of ZnCl2

Answer: In simplest case mass of reactants is same as mass of products.

Without thinking this question deeper, mass of ZnCl2 would be 49, but..

Explanation: Reaction should be  Zn + 2 HCl ⇒ ZnCl2 + H2

Amount of zinc is  5 g / 65,38 g/mol = 0,076476 mol and amount

of Hydrogen Chloride is 50 g / 36.458 g/mol = 1,371 mol.

Althought HCl is needed 0.152 moles, zinc is an limiting reactant.

So it is possible to produce only 0.076476 mol Hydrogen and its mass

is 0.154 g.  Mass of ZnCl2 would be 0.076476 mol · (65.38 + 2·35.45) =

 10.42 g

How many grams of Helium can be found in 3.4 moles of it.
MaRussiya [10]

one mole

If we look this number up for helium, we find that helium has a molar mass of 4.0 grams per mole. So one mole of helium has a mass of 4.0 grams. We can use the molar mass as a conversion factor. Two moles of helium times four grams of helium per mole of helium is equal to eight grams of helium.

<span>69.3 g First, determine the molar masses involved: Atomic weight iron = 55.845 Atomic weight carbon = 12.0107 Atomic weight oxygen = 15.999 Molar mass Fe2O3 = 2 * 55.845 + 3 * 15.999 = 159.687 g/mol Molar mass CO = 12.0107 + 15.999 = 28.0097 g/mol Determine how many moles of each reactant we have Moles Fe2O3 = 189 g / 159.687 g/mol = 1.18356535 mol Moles CO = 63.0 g / 28.0097 g/mol = 2.249220806 mol For every mole of Fe2O3, we need 3 moles of CO. So let's see how many moles of Fe2O3 is consumed by dividing moles CO by 3. 2.249220806 mol / 3 = 0.749740269 mol So we'll be consuming 0.749740269 moles of Fe2O3, subtract that from what we started with 1.18356535 mol - 0.749740269 mol = 0.433825081 mol Now multiply by the molar mass of Fe2O3 0.433825081 mol * 159.687 g/mol = 69.27622574 g Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 69.3 g</span>
