Solution

The correct option is B 4.35g,166.7ml
The number of moles of chlorine obtained =1.1222.4=0.05 moles.

They are also equal to the number of moles of manganese dioxide.

Mass of manganese dioxide =0.05×86.9=4.35 g.

The number of moles of HCl =4×0.05=0.2 moles.

Mass of HCl =0.2×36.5×1003.65=200 g.

Volume of HCl =2001.2=166.7 ml.
