Scandium, Sc, reacts with dilute hydrochloric acid to form scandium chloride and hydrogen gas.
When 0.450 g of scandium reacts completely with excess acid, 0.0300 g of hydrogen gas is produced. Relative atomic masses: Sc = 45, H = 1
What is the formula of scandium chloride?
ScCl2\mathrm{ScCl_{2}}ScCl2
ScCl3\mathrm{ScCl_{3}}ScCl3
ScCl6\mathrm{ScCl_{6}}ScCl6
Sc2Cl3\mathrm{Sc_{2}Cl_{3}}Sc2Cl3
