How many grams of hydrochloric acid will react completely with a block of gold is 3.2 cm by 3.8 cm by 2.8 cm, if the density of gold is 19.3 g/ml? show all steps of your calculation as well as the final answer. au + hcl → aucl2 + h2

mass of HCl = 243.5426 grams

Explanation:
1- we will get the mass of the reacting gold:
volume of gold = length * width * height
volume of gold = 3.2 * 3.8 * 2.8 = 34.048 cm^3 = 34.048 ml
density = mass / volume
Therefore:
mass = density * volume
mass of gold = 19.3 * 34.048 = 657.1264 grams

2- we will get the number of moles of the reacting gold:
number of moles = mass / molar mass
number of moles = 657.1264 / 196.96657 
number of moles = 3.3362 moles

3- we will get the number of moles of the HCl:
First, we will balanced the given equation. The balanced equation will be as follows:
Au + 2HCl > AuCl2 + H2
This means that one mole of Au reacts with 2 moles of HCl.
Therefore 3.3362 moles will react with 2*3.3362 = 6.6724 moles of HCL

4- we will get the mass of the HCl:
From the periodic table:
molar mass of H = 1 gram
molar mass of Cl = 35.5 grams
Therefore:
molar mass of HCl = 1 + 35.5 = 36.5 grams/mole
number of moles = mass / molar mass
Therefore:
mass = number of moles * molar mass
mass of HCl = 6.6724 * 36.5
mass of HCl = 243.5426 grams

Hope this helps :)

Sorry i dont understand the question can you rephase it?
