=(56.0g)/(mol)

Explanation:

  1. Write and balance the equation.
    Fe+2HCl->FeCl_2+H_2
  2. Given the mass and concentration of HCl, we can find the etaHCl through this formula.
    "Molarity"=eta/"Li solution"
    eta="Molarity"xx"Li solution"
    eta=((2.2mol)/cancel((L)))((50.0cancel(mL))xx(1cancel(L))/(1000cancel(mL)))
    eta=0.1100molHCl
  3. Now, find etaFe through molar conversion with reference to the balanced equation for molar ratio.
    =0.1100cancel(molHCl)xx(1molFe)/(2cancel(molHCl))
    =0.055molFe
  4. Lastly, find the relative atomic mass of Fe
    M_(Fe)=(mFe)/(etaFe)
    M_(Fe)=(3.08g)/(0.055mol)
    M_(Fe)=(56.0g)/(mol)
