A sealed vessel initially contains 100 g of chlorine gas and 90 g of hydrogen gas. The two gases undergo reaction to form HCl. Which of the following statements is true?

a. 100 g HCl is produced
b. 190 g HCl is produced
c. less than 90 g HCl is produced
d. between 100 and 190 g of HCl is produced

Answer :

Answer:

d.

Explanation:

H2 + Cl2 = 2HCL

From the equation 2g hydrogen combine with 71g of chlorine.

So 35.5 g Cl2 combines with 1g of H2

There are 100g of Cl2 so this will, by proportion, react with 100/35.5 g hydrogen.

This is 2.8 g hydrogen so the mass of HCl formed = 102.8 g.

The true statement is that d. between 100 and 190 g of HCl is produced.

How do find the mass of HCL?

To find mass of HCL:

H2 + Cl2 = 2HCL

From the equation, 2g of hydrogen combines with 71g of chlorine.

So 35.5 g Cl2 combines with 1g of H2

There are 100g of Cl2 so this will, by proportion, react with 100/35.5 g of hydrogen.

This is 2.8 g hydrogen so the mass of HCl formed = 102.8 g.

Hydrogen chloride may be formed by the direct combination of chlorine (Cl2) gas and hydrogen (H2) gas.
