Question

When 22.4 litres of H_2(g) is mixed with 11.2 litres of Cl_2(g), each at S.T.P, the moles of HCl_(g) formed is equal to

(a) 1 mol of HCl_(g)

(b) 2 mol of HCl_(g)

(c) 0.5 mol of HCl_(g)

(d) 1.5 mol of HCl_(g).

Answer 1

Answer - (a) 1 mol of HCl_(g)

 

Solution - 

H₂ + Cl₂    ⇒ 2HCl 

no. of moles of H₂  = 22.4/22.4 = 1 mole 

no. of moles of Cl₂ = 11.2/22.4 = 0.5 mole

thus limiting reagent is Cl₂ 

for 1 mole Cl₂ → 2 mole HCl

for 0.5 mole Cl₂ → 1 mole HCl

Answer = 1 mole HCl
