Aqueous hydrochloric acid reacts with oxygen gas to produce liquid water and chlorine gas. When 63.1 g of hydrochloric acid are allowed to react with 17.2 g of oxygen gas, 49.3 g of chlorine gas are collected. Write a balanced chemical equation, determine the limiting reactant, calculate the theoretical yield of chlorine (in grams) and calculate the percent yield of the reaction. What type of reaction is this (acid/base, precipitation or redox)?
