108 g HCI reacts with excess AI. What mass of AICI3 forms?

Sagot :

The Answer to the question is 133.34 grams approximately.

As Al is in excess so, complete HCl will consume in reaction.

Molar Mass of HCl = Atomic mass of H + Atomic mass of Cl

Molar Mass of HCl = 1 + 35.45 = 36.45

Number of moles of HCl which reacting will excess Al are

moles = given mass / molar mass

moles = 108 / 36.45 = 2.96 moles of HCl

So 2.96 moles of HCl are taking part in reaction which is approximately 3 moles

The chemical reaction is as follows as:

3 HCl + (excess) Al →  AlCl₃ + 3 H

It is clear from the reaction that 3 moles of HCl are making 1 mole of AlCl₃

So in our reaction also 3 mole of HCl is taking part which mean that it will form 1 mole of AlCl₃ .

1 mole AlCl₃ = mass formed AlCl₃ / molar mass of AlCl₃

mass formed AlCl₃ = molar mass of AlCl₃

mass formed AlCl₃ = 133.34 grams

So, approximately 133.34 grams of AlCl₃ is formed when we react 108 grams of HCl with excess AlCl₃.
