1.      How many mL of 3.00 M HCl will be needed to dissolve 25.0 grams of aluminum metal according to the reaction

2 Al(s)  +  6 HCl(aq)  à  3 H2(g)  + 2 AlCl3(aq)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

2.      Two solutions were mixed in a 400 mL beaker.  The first solution was 25.0 mL of 0.174 M FeCl3 and the second was 62.8 mL of 0.123 M NaOH.  Calculate the molarities of all ions in the resulting solution and the mass of any precipitate produced.  If no precipitate forms, so state. 

FeCl3(aq)  +  NaOH(aq)  à 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3.      Phosphoric acid is made commercially by reacting sulfuric acid with phosphate rock which contains Ca3(PO4)2.  the reaction equation is:

3 H2SO4(aq)  +  Ca3(PO4)2(s)  à  2 H3PO4  +  3 CaSO4

How many liters of sulfuric acid solution are needed to react with 10.0 kg of phosphate rock given that the phosphate rock is 87.4% calcium phosphate.  The acid solution is 28.0% H2SO4 and its density is 1.203 g/mL.  You should assume that the other material in the rock is inert to the acid.
