In another experiment, 0.4 mol of hydrochloric acid, HCl\text{HCl}HCl, was mixed with 0.3 mol of zinc, Zn\text{Zn}Zn.
Zn(s)+2HCl(aq)→ZnCl2(aq)+H2(g) \text{Zn(s)} + 2\text{HCl(aq)} \rightarrow \text{ZnCl}_2\text{(aq)} + \text{H}_2\text{(g)} Zn(s)+2HCl(aq)→ZnCl2(aq)+H2(g)Use the equation to show that, in this experiment, zinc is in excess.
