Chlorine can be generated by heating together calcium hyperchlorite and hydrochloric acid. Calcium chloride and water are also formed.
a) If 50.0g of Ca(OCl)2 and 275mL of 6.00M HCL are allowed to react, how many grams of chlorine gas will form?
b) Which reactant will be in excess and what is its mass?
The attempt at a solution
Ca(ClO)2 + 4 HCl → CaCl2 + 2 H2O + 2 Cl2 is this a redox equation ? i don't know how to proceed. Any help would be would be appreciated ...
