Question

Hydrofluoric acid, HF(aq), cannot be stored in glass bottles
because compounds called silicates in the glass are attacked
by the HF(aq). Sodium silicate 1Na2SiO32, for example, reacts
as follows:
Na2SiO31s2 + 8 HF1aq2¡ H2SiF61aq2 + 2 NaF1aq2 + 3 H2O1l2
(a) How many moles of HF are needed to react with 0.300
mol of Na2SiO3?
(b) How many grams of NaF form when 0.500 mol of HF
reacts with excess Na2SiO3?
(c) How many grams of Na2SiO3 can react with 0.800 g of HF?
