Excess of HCl is reacted with 6.5 g of zinc. The hydrogen liberated is burnt with oxygen. The mass of water formed is (Atomic mass of Zn = 65)
Hydrogen gas is prepared in the laboratory by reacting dilute HCl with granulated zinc. Following reaction takes place
Zn+2HCl→ZnCl2+H2
Calculate the volume of hydrogen gas liberated at STP when 32.65 g of zinc reacts with HCl. 1 mol of a gas occupies 22.7 L volume at STP; atomic mass of Zn = 65.3u
