3 Copper(II) chloride solution, CuCl 2(aq), can be prepared by reacting excess
powdered copper(II) oxide, CuO(s), with hot hydrochloric acid:
CuO(s) + 2HCl(aq) → CuCl2(aq) + H2O(l)
Unreacted copper(II) is then removed by filtration, and water is evaporated from
the filtrate to leave crystals of copper(II) chloride-2-water, CuCl2•2H2O.
In one such preparation, 50 cm 3 of 0.50 mol dm –3 hydrochloric acid is used.
(a) Calculate the amount (in moles) of hydrochloric acid used.
