How many moles of hydrochloric acid are present in 62.2 mL of 4.54 M HCl solution

Moles of HCl = 0.282

Molarity shows the number of moles of solute in every 1 liter of solute or mmol in each ml of solution

Where

M = Molarity

n = number of moles of solute

V = Volume of solution

The volume of HCl=62.2 ml=0.0622 L

The molarity of HCl = 4.54 M

Then moles of HCl :

explanation:

metals have excess of electrons whereas non-metals have deficiency of electrons. thus, in order to gain stability metals easily donate their electrons to the non-metals.

for example, electronic configuration of sodium is and electronic configuration of phosphorous is .

when a phosphorous atom and sodium atom combine together then sodium will donate is extra one electron to the phosphorous atom. as a result there will be formation of ionic bond between sodium and phosphorous.

the reaction will be as follows.

there, are three sodium sodium atoms and each of them will donate its one extra electron to phosphorous atom. thus, the sub-shell of phosphorous gets completely filled.  

thus, we can conclude that electrons are transferred from atoms of sodium to atoms of phosphorous. this transfer makes the sodium atoms donate one electron and the phosphorous atoms to gain one electron. as a result, the sodium and phosphorus atoms strongly attract each other.
