1 Answer
You must use 22 L of the barium hydroxide solution.
Explanation:
There are three steps involved in this stoichiometry problem:
- Write the balanced chemical equation
- Use the molar ratio from the balanced equation to calculate the moles of
#"Ba(OH)"_2# - Calculate the volume of
#"Ba(OH)"_2#
Step 1. Write the balanced chemical equation.
Let's assume you are using
Step 2. Calculate the moles of
The molar ratio from the balanced equation is
Step 3. Calculate the volume of
