Answer to Question #173152 in Inorganic Chemistry for Kyleigh

Question

2HCl + Ba(OH)  ₂ --> BaCl  ₂ + 2H  ₂O

If you have 50.0 grams of Ba(OH)  ₂, how many grams of BaCl  ₂ can you make?

Answer 1

2HCL = 2mol

Ba(OH)2 = 1mol

BaCl2 = 1 mol

2H2O = 2mol

Molar Mass BaCL2 = 208.23g/mol

Molar Mass of Ba(OH)2 = 171.34g/mol

Using the ratio

(208.3g/mol Bacl2/ 171.34Ba(OH)2) ×50

= 60.78557

= 60.79g Bacl2
