Can someone help me with this? I got to 63.2 times 1 mol HCl/36.461 = 1.7334 Consider the complete reaction of 63.2 g of HCl with excess oxygen gas. What mass of chlorine gas product forms? 4 HCl(g) + O2(g) → 2 H2O(l) + 2 Cl2(g)

First find the moles of HCl. For this you divide 63.2 g by the molar mass of HCl that you find on the periodic table. After that you see that the ratio of HCl:CL2 is 4:2, or 2:1. Therefore moles of Cl2 equal half of the moles of HCl. Now that you have the moles of Cl2 , convert to grams using the molar mass

So 61.45?

I didnt do the math, but if you followed the procedure then it is correct
