Hello everyone,
I have to make several calculations about solid-liquid reactions, but I have a lot of doubts. The more I look at information, the more doubts I have.
For example, the reaction Fe2O3 + 6 HCl --> 2 FeCl3 + 3 H2O
Can I write a rate equation depending on concentration of HCl? Or the volume will change during the reaction?
I have donde the following reasoning:
At time=0; 1 liter of HCl 37% = 1190 g = 440 grams HCl (12.22 mol) + 750 grams H2O
At infinite time all HCl is consumed, we have the previos 750 grams of water + 110 new grams of H2O (6.11 mol) = 840 mL
Is this correct?
I don't find anything about this in the bibliography (Fogler, Levenspiel).
Thank you.
