Chemistry

The following Balanced Reaction will take place:

Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂

In the question, we have 2 moles of Zinc and 3 moles of HCl for this reaction

<u>Amount of HCl required to completely react with 2 moles of Zn:</u>

Since we need 2 moles of HCl for every mole of Zn, we will need 2(2) = 4 moles of HCl for every 2 moles of Zn

<u>Identifying the Limiting Reagent:</u>

But we are only given 3 moles of HCl where we need 4 moles to completely react.

So, since HCl is in less amount, it is the Limiting Reagent

What does the atomic number of an element represent?
harkovskaia [24]
Hello!
Whenever you see an atomic number with an element, you know the number of protons in the nucleus of the atom, which determines the chemical of an element and its place on the periodic table.

For example, Hydrogen has only one proton, however, if you were to add say 78 more protons, you'd get gold!
