Answer:

A. 9.3 g

B. 0.11 g

Explanation:

  • Fe(s) + 2HBr(aq) → FeBr₂(aq) + H₂(g)

PART A

First we convert 3.2 grams of pure iron into moles, using its molar mass:

  • 3.2 g ÷ 55.85 g/mol = 0.0573 mol Fe

Now we convert 0.0573 moles of Fe into moles of HBr, using the stoichiometric coefficients:

  • 0.0573 mol Fe * [tex]\frac{2molHBr}{1molFe}[/tex] = 0.115 mol HBr

Finally we convert 0.115 moles of HBr into grams, using its molar mass:

  • 0.115 mol HBr * 80.91 g/mol = 9.3 g HBr

PART B

This time we convert the 0.0573 moles of Fe from last time into H₂ moles:

  • 0.0573 mol Fe * [tex]\frac{1molH_2}{1molFe}[/tex] = 0.0573 mol H₂

Finally we convert H₂ moles into grams:

  • 0.0573 mol H₂ * 2 g/mol = 0.11 g
