Answer to Question #160298 in General Chemistry for Patrick koome

Question

A volume of 20litres of HCL was completely decomposed to its constituent elements hydrogen and chlorine what are the volumes of the constituent elements

Answer 1

Balanced chemical reaction ,

2HCl -----> H₂ + Cl₂

From balanced chemical reaction,

2 L of HCl gives 1 L of each product

Hence volume produced of H₂ = [10] L

volume produced of Cl₂ = [10] L
