The answer to that question is c
Answer:
4.8 grams of H₂ will be produced if 175g of HCI are allowed to react completely with sodium
Explanation:
By stoichiometry of the reaction (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction) you can see that the following amounts in moles of each compound react and are produced:
- HCl: 2 moles
- Na: 1 mole
- NaCl: 2 moles
- H₂: 1 mole
You know the following masses of each element:
- H: 1 g/mole
- Cl: 35.45 g/mole
- Na: 23 g/mole
So, the molar mass of each compound participating in the reaction is:
- HCl: 1 g/mole + 35.45 g/mole= 36.45 g/mole
- Na: 23 g/mole
- NaCl: 23 g/mole + 35.45 g/mole= 58.45 g/mole
- H₂: 2* 1 g/mole= 2 g/mole
Then, by stoichiometry of the reaction, the following amounts in grams of each of the compounds participating in the reaction react and are produced:
- HCl: 2 moles* 36.45 g/mole= 72.9 g
- Na: 1 mole* 23 g/mole= 23 g
- NaCl: 2 moles* 58.45 g/mole= 116.9 g
- H₂: 1 mole* 2 g/mole= 2 g
So, a rule of three applies as follows: if by stoichiometry, when reacting 72.9 grams of HCl 2 grams of H₂ are formed, when reacting 175 grams of HCl how much mass of H₂ will be formed?

mass of H₂= 4.8 g
<u><em>4.8 grams of H₂ will be produced if 175g of HCI are allowed to react completely with sodium</em></u>
I believe your answer would be helium friend :)
Hey there!
The answer is D, Salinity.
Salinity is the concentration of salt in water. Ocean water often has high salinity and this can contribute to things like upwelling and water density- but these all start from salinity.
Hope this helps!
