When hydrochloric acid reacts with sodium sulfide, hydrogen sulfide gas and sodium chloride are produced. How many moles of H2S will be generated by 2.56 moles of HCl?

2HCl + Na2S → H2S + 2NaCl

mol H2S = 1.28 mol

Explanation:

balanced reaction:

∴ moles HCl = 2.56 mol

⇒ moles H2S = ?

⇒ moles H2S = (2.56 mol HCl)*(mol H2S/2 moles HCl)

⇒ moles H2S = 1.28 mol

answer is: naturally occurring solid, inorganic compound or element is mineral.

minerals usually have crystalline form, that means than crystal constituents (atoms, molecules or ions) are arranged in a highly ordered microscopic structure, forming a crystal lattice that extends in all directions.

for example magnetite is a mineral of iron oxide (fe₂o₃).

calcite is a carbonate mineral and the most stable polymorph of calcium carbonate (caco₃).

dolomite is an   carbonate mineral composed of calcium magnesium carbonate (camg(co₃)₂).
