Submit Answer Incorrect. Tries 2/3 previous Tries

Explanation / Answer

The ballanced equation is

Zn + 2HNO3 = Zn(NO3)2 + H2

Molar mass of Zn is 65.5 g.

52.4 g Zn contains 52.4/65.5 mole = 0.8 mole.

1 mol Zn reacts with 2 moles of HNO3.

So, no of moles of HNO3 required is 2*0.8=1.6 mole.

Volume of 5.20(M) HNO3 is

1.6/5.2 L = 0.31 L= 310 mL
