Question

A solution of 0.75 M HCl is reacted with excess Na₂CO3 to generate CO₂ as follows:
Na₂CO3 + 2 HCI → H₂CO3 + 2 NaCl → 2 NaCl + H₂O + CO₂
As a result, a volume of 37.1 mL CO₂ is collected over water at 25°C and 755 mmHg. Given that the partial pressure of water vapor at these conditions is 23.8 mmHg, what volume of HCI was reacted?
