no that's why asking

Have you not got the answer?
First of all, look at the stoichiometric ratio
and then look at the units, as you can see it’s in cm3 right? So what can you infer from this?
If you’ve read the book/examples then this calculation isn’t as hard as you think

convert into dm3 divide by 1000?

now what do i do ?

Correct
So for the moles of HCL, there’s an equation that you need to have in your back pocket
Which is why I said that you probably haven’t looked at the examples in the book

Thanks, I got its 0.15x0.50=0.075

Wait, that might be wrong

What no!!! :frown:
You always have to be careful for the stoichiometric ratios, if you really want to get in that A category, I’m assuming you’re in Year 12?

The answer is correct by the looks of it, because you haven’t really supplied me with context so I can’t say, but jut keep practicing:smile:
