Magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid to produce magnesium chloride.
Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) → MgCl2(aq) + H2(g)
What mass of magnesium chloride is produced when 12 g of magnesium reacts completely with excess hydrochloric acid?
Ar values:
Cl = 35.5
O = 16
H = 1
Ca = 40
C = 12
Mg = 24
Cu = 63.5
N = 14
A: 95 g
B: 35.5 g
C: 24 g
D: 47.5 g
