2B+6HCI --
| --> 2BCl3 + 3H2
How many moles of boron chloride will be produced if you start with 8.752 moles of HCI
(hydrochloric acid)? (Round to 3 sig figs. Enter the number only do not include units.)

2.92 mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

2 B(s) + 6 HCI(aq) ⇒ 2 BCl₃(aq) + 3 H₂(g)

Step 2: Establish the appropriate molar ratio

The molar ratio of hydrochloric acid to boron chloride is 6:2.

Step 3: Calculate the moles of boron chloride produced from 8.752 moles of hydrochloric acid
