Chlorine can be prepared in the laboratory by the reaction of manganese dioxide with hydrochloric acid, HCl(aq) , as described by the chemical equation

MnO2(s)+4HCl(aq)⟶MnCl2(aq)+2H2O(l)+ Cl2(g)

How much MnO2(s) should be added to excess HCl(aq) to obtain 385 mL Cl2(g) at 25 °C and 765 Torr ? mass of MnO 2

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we first apply the ideal gas equation to compute the moles of produced chlorine:

Then, by considering the given reaction, applying the stoichiometry, that shows a 1 to 1 relationship between chlorine and manganese dioxide, we find:

Best regards.

ca has a crystalline lattice with positive ions (since it is a metal, metals are positively charged) and electrons flow freely in its structure since the ca atoms have a large nuclear radius so the electrons are not tightly held, therefore the electrons can flow freely since they are not being highly attracted by the nucleus. moreover, one of the properties of metals are that they are conductors of electricity, thus proving ca is the element.
