Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl2 + H2
At conditions of Standard Temperature and Pressure, determine how many liters of hydrogen gas are produced by placing a zinc nail with a mass of 2.2g into an excess of hydrochloric acid.
A) 0.0015L
B) 0.75L
C) 1.33L
D) 6.42L

Answer:

b

Explanation:

The measure of hydrogen gas generated by placing a zinc nail of 2.2g would be:

B). [tex]0.75 l[/tex]

Given that,

Mass of Zinc [tex]= 2.2 g[/tex]

Molar mass of Zinc [tex]= 65g[/tex]

Chemical Reaction

[tex]Zn + 2HCl[/tex] → [tex]ZnCl2 + H2[/tex]

As we see,

[tex]1[/tex] hydrogen mole is given by 1 zinc mole

We also know,

Temperature and Pressure = standardized

so,

[tex]1[/tex] mole would contain [tex]22.4 l[/tex]

∵ [tex]1[/tex] zinc mole will provide [tex]22.4[/tex] l of hydrogen gas.

Now, we will find the number of zinc moles

[tex]= given mass/molar mass[/tex]

[tex]= 2.2/65[/tex]

[tex]= 0.035[/tex] moles

Thus,

The amount of hydrogen gas(H2) produced by [tex]0.035[/tex] moles would be:

[tex]= 0.0335[/tex] × [tex]22.4[/tex]

[tex]= 0.75 l[/tex]

Thus, option B is the correct answer.
