Answer #1

1)

Calculate the number of moles of Chlorine using the gas equation

PV =nRT

where n = no. of moles of chlorine

(785 torr)(0.155L) = n(62.36 L torr K-1mole-1)(273+25)K

n = (121.675)/(18583.28)

n = 0.006548 mole

The reaction is as

MnO2 (s) + 4 HCl(aq) →MnCl, (aq) + 2 H, 0(1) + Cl2 (8)

From the reaction, it is clear that 1 mole of MnO2 produces 1 mole of chlorine.

Therefore, No. of moles of MnO2 = moles of chlorine = 0.006548 mole

Mass of MnO2 = (No. of moles of MnO2)(Molar mass of MnO2)

= (0.006548 mole)(118.93 g/mole)

= 0.7787 g

= 0.779 g (Ans)
