Question

(iv) Explain the chemical reaction with a balanced chemical equation :
Manganese dioxide reacts with hydrochloric acid.​

Answer 1

Answer:

MnO2 + 4 HCl → MnCl2 + 2H2O + Cl 2

By means of a stoichiometry, 1 mol of manganese dioxide reacts with 4 mol of HCl (hydrochloric acid) to form 1 mol manganese chloride 1 mol of chloride & 2 mol of water

Answer 2

Explanation:

MnO2 + 4 HCl → MnCl2 + 2H2O + Cl 2

By means of a stoichiometry, 1 mol of manganese dioxide reacts with 4 mol of HCl (hydrochloric acid) to form 1 mol manganese chloride 1 mol of chloride & 2 mol of water.
