Answer:
0.4 g of hydrogen gas would be produced.
1. 0.48 mole of HCl is needed to react completely with 15.5 g of zinc.
2. HCl is the limiting reactant.
3. 2.61 g of zinc is in excess
Explanation:
From the balanced equation of reaction:
1 mole of Zn requires 2 moles of HCl to produce 1 mole of hydrogen gas.
15.5 g of zinc = 15.5/65.3 = 0.24 moles of zinc.
0.24 moles Zn is supposed to require 0.24 x 2 moles HCl which is equivalent to 0.48 moles HCl.
But only 0.400 mole of HCl is present. <u>Hence, HCl is the limiting reagent</u>. <u>For complete reaction with 15.5 g of Zinc, 0.48 mole HCl would be needed.</u>
0.400 mole of HCl will require 0.2 mole of Zn for complete reaction. <u>This thus means that 0.24 - 02 = 0.04 mole of Zn is in excess.</u>
0.04 mole Zn = 0.04 x 65.3 = 2.61 g excess Zn.
Now, since HCl is the limiting reagent;
2 moles of HCl is required to produce 1 mole of H2 according to the equation.
0.400 mole HCl will therefore yield 0.400 x 1/2 = 0.2 mole H2
0.2 mole H2 = 2 x 0.2 = 0.4 g H2
<em>Hence, </em><em>0.4 g</em><em> of hydrogen gas would be produced.</em>
The 32.06 represent The atomic mass, the average number of protons & neutrons
<h3>Further explanation </h3>The Atomic Number (Z) indicates the number of protons in an atom of an element. If the atom is neutral then the number of protons will be equal to the number of electrons. So the atomic number can also indicate the number of electrons.
So atomic number = number of protons = number of electrons
Mass Number (A) is the sum of protons and neutrons
Mass Number (A) = Number of protons + Number of Neutrons
So that the relationship between atomic numbers and mass numbers can be formulated as follows:
Atomic Number (Z) = Mass Number (A) - Number of Neutrons
In the following element notation,
X = symbol of elemental atom
A = mass number
= number of protons + number of neutrons
Z = atomic number
= number of protons = number of electrons, on neutral elements
