1.Calculate the mass of HCl required to form 5 moles of CaCl2
Answers
Answer
Number of moles of HCl=250 mL×
1000
0.76 M
=0.19 mol
Mass of CaCO
3
=1000 g
Number of moles of CaCO
3
=
100 g
1000 g
=10 mol
According to given equation 1 mol of CaCO
3
(s) requires 2 mol of HCl(aq). Hence, for the reaction of 10 mol of CaCO
3
(s) number of moles of HCl required would be :
10 mol CaCO
3
×
1 mol CaCO
3
(s)
2 mol HCl(aq)
=20 mol HCl(aq)
But we have only 0.19 mol HCl(aq), hence HCl(aq) is limiting reagent. So, amount of CaCl
2
formed will depend on the amount of HCl available. Since, 2 mol HCl(aq) forms 1 mol of CaCl
2
, therefore, 0.19 mol of HCl(aq) would give:
0.19 mol HCl(aq)×
2 mol HCl(aq)
1 mol CaCl
2
(aq)
=0.095 mol of CaCl
2
or 0.095× molar mass of CaCl
2
=0.095×111=10.54 g
