Question

A major industrial use of hydrochloric acid is for "pickling", the removal of rust from metals, especially steel (largely iron) before it is used to fabricate steel products. The rust is removed by dipping the steel into very large baths of hydrochloric acid. The acid reacts in an exchange reaction with rust (iron (III) Oxide), leaving behind iron (III) chloride and water. How many pounds of rust can be removed when rust-covered steel reacts with 800. L of 12.0 M hydrochloric acid? Assume that only the rust reacts with the acid. (1 lb=453.6 g)
