Answer:
Explanation:
1.
The reaction can be represented by the equation: Zn + 2 HCl -> ZnCl2 + H2
From the equation, molar ratio of Zn and ZnCl2 is 1:1.
Molar mass of Zn = 65.38
Molar mass of ZnCl2 = 65.38 + 35.45*2 = 136.28
So 6.0 grams of Zn will produce 6 / 65.38 * 136.28 = 12.5 grams
2.
As the only other product is copper (II) oxide, the reaction can be represented by the equation: CuCO3 -> CuO + CO2
From the equation, molar ratio of CuCO3 and CuO is 1:1.
Molar mass of CuCO3 = 123.55
Molar mass of CuO = 79.55
So 45.0 grams of CuCO3 will produce 45 / 123.55 * 79.55 = 28.96 grams
