## Step 1The balanced chemical equation for the reaction between hydrogen gas and chlorine gas to produce hydrochloric acid is:### This equation tells us that one molecule of hydrogen gas reacts with one molecule of chlorine gas to produce two molecules of hydrochloric acid.## Step 2According to Avogadro's law, one mole of any gas at standard temperature and pressure (STP) occupies 22.4 liters. Therefore, 53.0 liters of chlorine gas is equivalent to moles.## Step 3Since the reaction is 1:1, the number of moles of HCl produced will be the same as the number of moles of chlorine gas used.## Step 4To find the volume of HCl produced, we multiply the number of moles of HCl by 22.4 liters (the volume of one mole of gas at STP).
