Question

What is the mass of the solid NH4Cl formed when 73.0 g of NH3(g) are mixed with an equal mass of gaseous HCl? What is the volume and identity of the gas remaining, measured at 14.0°C and 752 mmHg?

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given : The reactants are NH3 and HCl.

Mass of NH3 taken = 73.0 g

Mass of HCl taken  73.0 g

Temperature = 14.0 oC

And pressure = 752 mm Hg = 752 / 760 = 0.9895 atm approx.                                     (since 1 atm = 760 mm Hg)

Molar mass of NH3 = Atomic mass of N + Atomic mass of H X 3 = 14 + 1 X 3 = 17 g/mol.

And molar mass of HCl = Atomic mass of H + Atomic mass of Cl = 1 + 35.5 = 36.5 g/mol.
