Gallium chloride is formed by the reaction of 4.2L of a 1,42M solution of HCl according to the following equation. 2Ga+6HCl?2GaCl3?+3H2? (a) Determine the number of moles of gallium chloride. (b) Determine the mass (in g ) of gallium chloride. ? 9
(a) To determine the number of moles of gallium chloride produced, we need to first calculate the number of moles of hydrochloric acid used in the reaction, using the given volume and concentration: From the balanced chemical equation, we know that 2 moles of gallium chloride are produced for every 6 moles of hydrochloric acid. Therefore, the number of moles of gallium chloride produced can be calculated as follows:
