How Big is a Mole?How Big is a Mole?
One mole of marbles would cover the entire Earth (oceans included) for a depth of two miles.
One mole of $1 bills stacked one on top of another would reach from the Sun to Pluto and back 7.5 million times.
It would take light 9500 years to travel from the bottom to the top of a stack of 1 mole of $1 bills.

Just watch, don’t write: If you have 79.1 g of Zn to react with excess HCl (enough HCl to keep reacting as long as you need), how many Liters of H2 gas will be produced?

B. Using Mole IslandB. Using Mole IslandB. Using Mole IslandB. Using Mole IslandNow write this one for practice: If you instead have 79.1 g of HCl to react with excess Zinc (enough Zinc to keep reacting as long as you need), how many Liters of H2 gas will be produced?
Other possibilities: Still starting with 79.1 grams of HCl, how many molecules of H2 gas are produced? Or what mass of H2 gas is produced?
How would these questions change your calculations?
