Gallium chloride is formed by the reaction of 2.25 L of a 1.50 M solution of HCl according to the following equation: 2Ga 6HCl --> 2GaCl3 3H2 Determine the mass of gallium chloride, in grams, produced. Group of answer choices

198.56g of GaCl3

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole HCl in 2.25 L of a 1.50 M solution of HCl. This is illustrated below:

Molarity of HCl = 1.50 M

Volume = 2.25 L

Mole of HCl =..?

Molarity = mole /Volume

1.5 = mole /2.25

Cross multiply

Mole = 1.5 x 2.25

Mole of HCl = 3.375 mole

Next, we shall determine the number of mole Gallium chloride, GaCl3 produced from the reaction. This is shown below:

2Ga + 6HCl —> 2GaCl3 + 3H2

From the balanced equation above,

6 moles of HCl reacted to produce 2 moles of GaCl3.

Therefore, 3.375 mole of HCl will react to produce = (3.375 x 2)/6 = 1.125 mole of GaCl3.

Therefore, 1.125 moles of GaCl3 were produced from the reaction.

Next, we shall convert 1.125 mole of GaCl3 to grams. This is illustrated below:

Molar mass of GaCl3 = 70 + (35.5x3) = 176.5g/mol

Mole of GaCl3 = 1.125 mole

Mass of GaCl3 =..?

Mole = mass /Molar mass

1.125 = mass of GaCl3 /176.5

Cross multiply

Mass of GaCl3 = 1.125 x 176.5

Mass of GaCl3 = 198.56g

Therefore, 198.56g of GaCl3 were produced from the reaction.

they are made of gases.

they have a spherical shape.

they make energy through fusion.

geosphere and hydrosphere.

this is because the geosphere has to do with geological events, while the hydrosphere controls all water on earth.
