Data for the Triel-1
1.533 g of Zn and KCl mixture
Total volume of H2 (gas) = 340mL
Volume of HCl used= 10mL
Atmospheric pressure= 719mmHg
Water temperature = 12.0 degree Celsius = 273.15+12.0 = 285.15K
Vapor pressure of water at temperature = 10.518 mm Hg
Pressure of H2 (gas) = 719mmhg - 10.518 mm hg = 708.482 mmHg
R = 62.364 L-mmHg/ºK-mol (Gas constant in mmHg K1 mol1)
The zinc will react with the HCl to produce ZnCl2 and H2 gas:
2HCl + Zn ----> ZnCl2 + H2
The moles of Zn equal the moles of H2 gas.
Find the moles of H2 gas
n = PV/RT.
n = 708.482*0.340/(62.364* 285.15)
= 0.0135456 mol
The moles of zinc = 0.0135456 mol
Molar mass of Zn = 65.38 g/mol
Mz = 0.0135456mol x 65.38 g/mol = 0.886 g
Now find the percent in the mixture from Mz/1.533 * 100
Zn% = (0.886 g /1.533g) x 100
Zn % = 57.79
Data for the Triel-2
1.650 g of Zn and KCl mixture
Total volume of H2 (gas) = 250mL
Volume of HCl used= 10mL
Find the moles of H2 gas
n = PV/RT.
n = 708.482*0.250/(62.364* 285.15)
= 0.00996 mol
The moles of zinc = 0.00996 mol
Molar mass of Zn = 65.38 g/mol
Mz = 0.00996 mol x 65.38 g/mol = 0.651g
Now find the percent in the mixture from Mz/1.650 * 100
Zn% = (0.651 g /1.650g) x 100
Zn % = 39.45
