NaOH+HCl--> NaCl+H2O

what is the total number of grams of H2O produced when 116 grams of the product, NaCl, is formed?

Verified Answer :

The produced grams of \(H_2O\) is \(36 \ g\).

In the metric system, a gram is defined as one thousandth \((1 \times 10^{-3})\) of a kilogram.

How do determine the number of moles?

\(\mathrm{Number \ of \ moles} = \frac{\mathrm{Mass}}{ \mathrm{Molar \ mass}}\)

\($\mathrm{NaOH}+\mathrm{HCl} \longrightarrow \mathrm{NaCl}+\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}$\)

1 mol of \($\mathrm{NaOH}$\) reacts with 1 mol of \($\mathrm{HCl}$\) and produces \($1 \mathrm{~mol}$\)of \($\mathrm{NaCl}$\) and 1 mol  of \($\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}$\) Number  of moles of \($\mathrm{NaCl}$\)

\($\begin{aligned}&=\frac{\text { mass }}{\text { molar mass }} \\&=\frac{116 \mathrm{~g}}{58.44 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mol}} \\&=1.98 \mathrm{~mol}\end{aligned}$\)

Number of moles produced \($\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}=1.98 \mathrm{~mol}$\)

Amount of produced \($\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}$\)

\(\mathrm{= mole \ number $\times$ molar mass}\)

\($=1.98 \mathrm{~mol} \times 18 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mol}$\)

\(\begin{aligned}&=35.64 \mathrm{~g} \\&=36 \mathrm{~g}\end{aligned}$\)

Therefore,  produced grams of \(H_2O\) is \(36 \ g\).
