How many moles of hydrogen gas will be produced if 5.00 moles of zinc reactions with an excess amount of sulfuric acid

Moles of Hydrogen produced is 5 moles

Explanation:

The balanced Chemical equation for reaction between zinc and sulfuric acid is :

This equation tells that ; when  1 mole of Zn react with 1 mole of sulfuric acid, it produces 1 mole of zinc sulfate and 1 mole of hydrogen.

Since sulfuric acid is in excess so Zinc is the limiting reagent

(Limiting reagent : Substance which get consumed when the reaction completes, limiting reagent helps in predicting the amount of products formed)

Limiting reagent (Zn) will decide the amount of Hydrogen produced

So,

Hence moles of Hydrogen produced is 5 moles
