Calculating HCl Volume for Na2CO3 Reaction

[Johnny_07]

Calculate the volume of 3.0 mol HCl required to react completely with 10.0g of Na2CO3.

Im confused about the "volume". What do they mean ?
Do I have to find the mass of HCl then convert it into a volume?

Are you sure it is not 3.0 M of HCl?

If it's volume, check out density after finding the stoichiometric constant for the balance equation and finding the mol of sodium bicarbonate.

If it's volume, check out density after finding the stoichiometric constant for the balance equation and finding the mol of sodium bicarbonate.

If it is M (mol/L) you don't need density.

unless you are forgetting that HCl is a gas unless specified otherwise (aqueous solution or sth); so by volume they mean the volume of the required gas under normal/standard conditions

But we're pretty sure the OP meant 3.0 M HCl, which does imply a solution, not a gas.

If it were really 3.0 moles as stated, it would be pointless to talk about the amount "required to react completely with 10.0g of Na2CO3".
