A solution of muriatic acid, HCl, reacts with Fe(2)O(3) deposits...?

Muriatic acid is often used to remove rust. A solution of muriatic acid, HCl, reacts with Fe(2)O(3) depositson industrial equipment. how many liters of 5.50 M would be nedded to react completely with 439 g Fe(2)O(3)?

Answer:
Fe2O3 +6 HCl >>2 FeCl3 +3 H2O

molar mass Fe2O3 = 159.7 g/mol

439 g / 159.7 = 2.75 moles Fe2O3

the ratio between Fe2O3 and HCl is 1 : 6

1 : 6 = 2.75 : x

x = 16.49 moles HCl needed

M = moles/L

L =moles/ M = 16.49 / 5.50 = 3.00 L HCl
