An iron sample is added to excess dilute hydrochloric acid. The iron reacts according to the equation:
Fe+2HCl→FeCl2+H2 \mathrm{Fe + 2HCl \rightarrow FeCl_{2} + H_{2}} Fe+2HCl→FeCl2+H2The reaction produces 0.840 dm3\mathrm{dm^{3}}dm3 of hydrogen at room temperature and pressure.
One mole of any gas occupies 24 dm3\mathrm{dm^{3}}dm3 at room temperature and pressure.
Relative atomic mass (ArA_rAr): Fe = 55.8
What mass of iron has reacted?
0.977 g
1.95 g
3.91 g
0.0350 g
