What is the mass of HCl that would be required to completely react with 5.2 grams of Mg?

OpenStudy (chmvijay):

can you write balanced reaction between Hcl and Mg

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Mg + 2HCl → MgCl2 + H2 That's what it gives me.

OpenStudy (chmvijay):

molecular weight of HCl??

OpenStudy (chmvijay):

molar mass of HCl =atomic mass of H + atomic mas of Cl find and tell me

OpenStudy (anonymous):

36 i think.

OpenStudy (chmvijay):

atomic mass of Mg

OpenStudy (anonymous):

24.

OpenStudy (chmvijay):

good :)

OpenStudy (chmvijay):

from balanced equation u can write for 24 gram of mg to react completely you need 2*36 gram of HCl but for 5.2 gram of Mg to react completely you need = can u calculate now

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Trying to figure this out..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm on here because i suck at chemistry lol.

OpenStudy (chmvijay):

no problem :) you have to do cross multiplication :) its like for example 10 fruit price = 100 punds then for 2 fruits =100*2 /10 = 20

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so i multiply 5 and 2 or 5 and 36?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

if i do all of that i get 360..

OpenStudy (chmvijay):

2*36*5.2 / 24

OpenStudy (chmvijay):

can u now LOL:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh well my options are, A. 6.9 B.6.934 C.16 D. 15.60

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So?

OpenStudy (chmvijay):

2*36*5.2 / 24 clauulate this LOL:) do u suck in maths too or what i dont think soo

OpenStudy (anonymous):

15.6

OpenStudy (anonymous):

oh i got it lol.
