What is the amount of zinc oxide substance formed by the interaction of 130 grams of zinc with oxygen?

The reaction of zinc with oxygen is described by the following chemical reaction equation:

2Zn + O2 = 2ZnO;

From one mole of zinc, one mole of zinc oxide is formed.

Let’s determine the amount of zinc substance:

N Zn = 130/65 = 2 mol;

The same amount of zinc chloride will be formed. Let’s find its mass:

N Zn = N ZnO = 2 mol;
