Answer:

The reaction requires 243 grams of HF.

Step-by-step explanation:


SiO_2 + 4HF\rightarrow SiF_4 + 2H_2O

Moles of silicon dioxide =
(182 g)/(60 g/mol)=3.033 mol

According to reaction 1 moles of silicon dioxide reacts with 4 moles of hydrogen fluoride.

Then 3.033 moles of silicon dioxide will react with:


(4)/(1)* 3.033 mol=12.133 mol of hydrogen fluoride

Mass of 12.133 moles of hydrogen fkluorode is:


12.133 mol* 20 g/mol=242.66 g\approx 243 g

The reaction requires 243 grams of HF.
