2C12H4CI6+23O2+2H2O->24CO2+12HCI (c) how many moles of CO2 are produced when 51.442572624144 g HCI are produced? Mol CO2.

1 answer

To find the moles of CO2 produced when 51.442572624144 g of HCl are produced, we need to use the molar mass and stoichiometry of the reaction.

The molar mass of HCl is 36.461 g/mol.

To find the moles of HCl produced, we can use the formula:

moles of HCl = mass of HCl / molar mass of HCl

moles of HCl = 51.442572624144 g / 36.461 g/mol

moles of HCl = 1.4106 mol

According to the balanced equation, 12 moles of HCl produce 24 moles of CO2.

So, 1.4106 mol of HCl will produce:

(24 mol CO2 / 12 mol HCl) * 1.4106 mol HCl = 2.8212 mol CO2

Therefore, 51.442572624144 g of HCl will produce 2.8212 mol of CO2.
