The element that has the fewest valence electrons available for bonding I believe is Hydrogen.
1.39 g HCl
Explanation:
The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is given by
Zn(<em>s</em>) + 2HCl(<em>aq</em>) ---> ZnCl2(<em>aq</em>) + H2(<em>g</em>)
Convert the # of grams of Zn to moles:
1.25 g Zn × (1 mol Zn/65.38 g Zn) = 0.0191 mol Zn
Use the molar ratio to find the # of moles of HCl needed to react completely with the given amount of Zn:
0.0191 mol Zn × (2 mol HCl/1 mol Zn) = 0.0382 mol HCl
Convert this amount to grams:
0.0382 mol HCl × (36.458 g HCl/1 mol HCl) = 1.39 g HCl
Answer:
15 protons
8 electrons in valence shell after accepting 3 electrons
Neutral/no charge before accepting 3 electrons
-3 charge after accepting 3 electrons
The dew point would be about 22 . (this is C )
