Question

If we have 0.06 moles of HCI

How many grams of magnesium metal is that?

Answer 1

1.44 g

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Number of mole of HCl = 0.06 mole

Mass of Mg =?

From the question given above, we discovered the number of mole of HCl is equivalent to the number of mole of Mg. Thus,

Number of mole of Mg = number of mole of HCl

Number of mole of Mg = 0.06 mole

Finally, we shall determine the mass of Mg. This can be obtained as follow:

Number of mole of Mg = 0.06 mole

Molar mass of Mg = 24 g/mol

Mass of Mg =?

Mass = mole × molar mass

Mass of Mg = 0.06 × 24

Mass of Mg = 1.44 g

Therefore, the mass of magnesium is 1.44 g
