What volume of HCl(g) is required for equivalence to a 32mL volume of AgNO3(aq) at 0.08molL1 concentration?

We need an equivalent molar quantity of HCl(g)......I gets under 60cm3 or under 60mL.......................

Explanation:

Moles of Ag+=32×103L×0.08molL1=2.56×103mol.

And thus we need an equivalent molar quantity of Cl, and thus an equivalent molar quantity of HCl(g), which is presumed to dissolve quantitatively in water to give HCl(aq).

So we use the Ideal Gas Equation,

V=nRTP=2.56×103mol×0.0821LatmKmol×273K1atm

Note that I have used 1atm to represent a pressure of 100kPa, which is near enuff.

We get V=0.057L=57.4cm3.
