What is the theoretical yield of hydrogen gas if 5.00 mol of zinc are added to an excess of hydrochloric acid?

the theoretical  yield   of  hydrogen gas is  10 g

   calculation

Step 1: write the equation for reaction

Zn + 2 HCl →  zncl₂  + H₂

Step 2: use the mole ratio to find the moles of H₂

from equation above Zn : H₂  is 1: 1 therefore the  moles of H₂ = 5.00 moles

Step 3: find the theoretical yield(mass) for H₂

mass = moles  × molar mass

from periodic table the molar mass of H₂= 1×2  = 2 g/mol

mass  =  5  moles  × 2 g/mol  = 10 grams

answer: i have one answer

acids are substances that ionize (break off) in an aqueous solution to produce hydrogen (h+) ions

explanation:

hope this and sorry i could only come up with one answer!
