Question

If six moles of hydrogen chloride (HCl) react with plenty of aluminum, how many moles of aluminum chloride (AlCl3) will the reaction produce?
2Al + 6HCl → 2AlCl3 + 3H2

Answer 1

Answer:

Two moles of aluminum chloride $(AlCl_3)$ are produced when six miles of hydrogen Chloride $(HCl)$ react with plenty of aluminum

Explanation:

6 Moles of $HCl$ will only react with 2 moles of $Al$ irrespective of the number of moles of each compound present. The reaction wiil take place in this ratio only. The products produced will be 2 moles of $AlCl_3$ and 3 moles of $H_2$ this ratio will also be constant.

So, six moles of hydrogen chloride $(HCl)$ will react with plenty of aluminum to produce many 2 moles of aluminum chloride $(AlCl_3)$.
