Respuesta :
The amount of hydrogen chloride that can be made is 1064 g
Why?
The two reactions are:
2H₂O → 2H₂ + O₂ 75.3 % yield
H₂ + Cl₂ → 2HCl 69.8% yield
We have to apply a big conversion factor to go from grams of water (The limiting reactant), to grams of HCl, the final product. We have to be very careful with the coefficients and percentage yields!
[tex]500.0gH_2O*\frac{1moleH_2O}{18.01 gH_2O}*\frac{2 moles H_2}{2 moles H_2O}*\frac{2.015g H_2}{1 mole H_2}*\frac{75.3 actual g}{100 theoretical g}=42.12 g H_2[/tex]
[tex]42.12H_2*\frac{1 mole H_2}{2.015gH_2}*\frac{2 moles HCl}{1 mole H_2}*\frac{36.46g}{1 mole HCl}*\frac{69.8 actualg}{100 theoreticalg} =1064gHCl[/tex]
Have a nice day!

The amount of hydrogen chloride yield in the second reaction is 1065.7 g.
The two given reactions
- 2H₂O → 2H₂ + O₂ 75.3 % yield
- H₂ + Cl₂ → 2HCl 69.8% yield
The amount of hydrogen gas yield in the first reaction is calculated as follows;
[tex]\frac{500 \ g\ H_2O}{18 \ g \ H_2O} \times (2 \ mol\ H_2) \times 0.753= 41.83 \ g \ H_2[/tex]
The amount of hydrogen chloride yield in the second reaction is calculated as follows;
[tex]41.83 \ g \times (36.5 \ HCl) \times 0.698 = 1065.7 \ g \ HCl[/tex]
Thus, the amount of hydrogen chloride yield in the second reaction is 1065.7 g.
