what volume (in ml) of 0.500 m hcl would be needed to react with 0.0357 g of al metal? hint: write a balanced reaction first. the molar mass of al is 26.98 g/mol.



Answer :

The volume of HCl needed will be 0.003 ml

6HCl + 2Al --------> 2AlCl3 + 3H2

The first thing we need to do is to determine the number of moles of HCl that are reacting.

Molarity = moles / volume of solution

Moles = given mass/molar mass = 0.0357 g/26.98 g

Moles = 0.001 moles

0.5 M = 0.001 mol/volume of solution

Volume = 0.02 ml

Now, we can determine the volume of HCl that will be needed to react with 0.5 moles of HCl by using the balanced equation.

0.5 moles x (2 mol Al/6 mol HCl) x (0.02/1)

= 0.003 ml

Hence, volume of HCl will be 0.003 ml
