Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The balanced chemical equation for the reaction of aluminum and hydrochloric acid to produce hydrogen needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction:A chemical equation for a reaction is said to be a balanced chemical equation if there are equal number of same atoms present in both sides of the reaction arrow.
(b)
Interpretation: The mass of pure aluminum needs to be determined for given volume, pressure and temperature.
Concept Introduction:An ideal gas equation is represented as follows:
Here, P is pressure, V is volume, n is number of moles, R is Universal gas constant and T is temperature.
The relation between mass and number of moles of a substance is as follows:
Here, M is molar mass of the substance.
