Aqueous HCl reacts with \(MnO_{2}(s)\) to form \(MnCl_{2}(aq)\), \(Cl_{2}(g)\) and \(H_{2}O(l)\). What is the weight (in g) of \(Cl_{2}\) liberated when 8.7 g of \(MnO_{2}(s)\) is reacted with excess aqueous HCl solution?
(Given Molar mass in \(g mol ^{-}\) Mn=55, Cl=35.5, O=16, H=1)
- A 7.1
- B 71
- C 21.3
- D 14.2
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) 7.1
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(MnO _2+4 HCl \rightarrow MnCl _2+ Cl _2+2 H _2 O\) \(\frac{8.7}{87} \quad\) Excess \(=0.1\) mole \(\quad 0.1\) mole Wt. of \(Cl _2\) obtained \(=0.1 \times 71=7.1 g\)
