Nswer the following questions relating to HCl, CH3Cl, and CH3Br. HCl(g), can be prepared by the reaction of concentrated H2SO4(ag), with NaCl(s), asa. represented by the following equation. H2SO4(ag) + 2 NaCl(s) → 2 HCl(g) Na2SO4(ag)A student claims that the reaction is a redox reaction. Is the student correct?i. Justify your answer. Calculate the mass, in grams, of NaCl(s), needed to react with excess H2SO4(ag)ii. to produce 3.0 grams of HCl(g). Assume that the reaction goes to completion

It is an example of double displacement reaction.

4.8 g of NaCl is needed to react.

Explanation:

Balanced reaction:

Here, oxidation states of H, S, O, Na and Cl do not change during reaction. Hence it is not a redox reaction.

In this reaction, cations and anions of the reactants interchange their partners during reaction. Hence, it is an example of double displacement reaction.

As remain in excess amount therefore NaCl (s) is the limiting reagent. Hence production of HCl entirely depends on amount of NaCl used.

Molar mass of HCl = 36.46 g/mol

So, 3.0 g of HCl = mol of HCl = 0.082 mol of HCl

According to balanced equation-

2 moles of HCl are produced from 2 moles of NaCl

So, 0.082 moles of HCl are produced from 0.082 moles of NaCl

Molar mass of NaCl = 58.44 g/mol

So, mass of 0.082 moles of NaCl = g = 4.8 g

Hence 4.8 g of NaCl is needed to react.

i wish i could but this one is weird give me abc and i can solve it.
