Question

Brass is an alloy of Zn and Cu. Cu does not react withHCl(aq), but does react according to the equation Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) --------------------> ZnCl2(aq)+ H2(g) What is the composition of a brass alloy if 12.15 g of thealloy reacts with HCl(aq) to yield 2.305g ofZnCl2? Thank you for your help. Brass is an alloy of Zn and Cu.
