12.5 L of
4 mol HCl react with 1 mol
So 4L HCl react with 1L
So 50L
We only have 25L of HCl so the
Since 4L HCl gives 2L
25 L HCl must give 25/2 = 12.5L
The limiting reagent is HCl, which means the reaction can only produce
Explanation:
In order to determine the volume of water produced when 25.0 L HCl reacts with 50.0 L
Balanced equation:
Since all substances are gases, the amount of each substance can be kept as liters. There is no need to convert liters to moles.
Determine the limiting reactant.
Multiply the known volume of each reactant times the mole ratio from the equation that leaves water and cancels
