Answer:
24.7 grams H₂O
Explanation:
To find the mass of water, you should (1) convert from grams HCl to moles (via molar mass from periodic table), then (2) convert from moles HCl to moles H₂O (via mole-to-mole ratio from equation), and then (3) convert from moles H₂O to grams (via molar mass from periodic table).
1 HCl + KOH --> 1 H₂O + KCl
Molar Mass (HCl): 1.008 g/mol + 35.45 g/mol
Molar Mass (HCl): 36.458 g/mol
Molar Mass (H₂O): 2(1.008 g/mol) + 16.00 g/mol
Molar Mass (H₂O): 18.016 g/mol
50 g HCl 1 mole HCl 1 mole H₂O 18.016 g
-------------- x ------------------ x ------------------- x ------------------- = 24.7 g H₂O
36.458 g 1 mole HCl 1 mole H₂O
