Question

1 Srcl (aq) + 1 H,60,(aq) → 2 HCl(aq) + 1 Srso (s)
What is the mass of strontium chloride that reacts with 300.0 g of sulfuric
acid?

Answer 1

Answer:

Mass = 245.72 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of SrCl₂ react = ?

Mass of H₂SO₄ = 300.0 g

Solution:

SrCl₂  +  2H₂SO₄     →     2HCl + Sr(HSO₄)₂

Number of moles of H₂SO₄:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles =  300.0 g/ 98.079 g/mol

Number of moles = 3.1 mol

Now we will compare the moles of SrCl₂ and  H₂SO₄.

                   H₂SO₄         :       SrCl₂

                        2             :           1

                      3.1             :         1/2×3.1 = 1.55 mol

Mass of SrCl₂:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 1.55 mol × 158.53 g/mol

Mass = 245.72 g
