How many liters of H2(g) at STP are produced per gram of Al(s) consumed in the following reaction? 2Al(s)+6HCl(aq)→2AlCl3(aq)+3H2(g)

Respuesta :

Answer:

1.24 L of H₂ at STP .

Explanation:

2Al(s)    +6HCl(aq)    →    2AlCl₃(aq)   +    3H₂(g)

2 moles                                                  3 x 22.4 L

2 x 27 g of Al reacts to give  3 x 22.4 L of H₂ at STP .

1 g of Al will react to give 3 x 22.4 / ( 2 x 27 ) L of H₂ at STP .

= 1.24 L of H₂ at STP .

The volume of hydrogen produced by 1 grams of Al has been 1.24 L.

The balanced chemical reaction has been given as:

[tex]\rm 2\;Al\;+\;6\;HCl\;\rightarrow\;2\;AlCl_3\;+\;3\;H_2[/tex]

From the equation, 2 moles of Aluminum gives 3 moles of Hydrogen

The mass of the compound from moles can be given as:

Mass = moles × molecular mass

Mass of 2 moles Al = 2 × 27 g

Mass of 2  moles Al = 54 g

Mass of 3 moles hydrogen = 3 × 2 g

Mass of 3 moles hydrogen = 6 g

From the equation,

54 g aluminum gives = 6 grams hydrogen

[tex]\rm 1\;gram\;aluminum\;=\;\dfrac{6}{54}\;\times\;1[/tex]

1 gram Aluminum = 0.11 grams hydrogen

The mass of hydrogen produced by 1 gram Al has been 0.11g. The moles equivalent to 0.11g hydrogen has been given as:

Mass = moles × molecular mass

0.11 g = moles × 2 g/mol

Mole of hydrogen = 0.055 mol

The moles of hydrogen produced by 1 gram of Al has been 0.055 mol.

According to the ideal gas equation, any gas at STP has 1 mole equivalent to 22.4 L. So,

1 mol = 22.4 L

0.055 mol = 0.055 × 22.4 L

0.055 mol = 1.244 L.

The volume of hydrogen produced by 1 grams of Al has been 1.24 L.
