Question:

A drop (0.05 mL) of 12.0 M HCl is spread over a sheet of thin aluminum foil. Assume that all the acid reacts with, and thus dissolves through, the foil. What will be the area, in cm2, of the cylindrical hole produced? (Density of Al = 2.70 g/cm3; foil thickness = 0.10 mm.)

2 Al(s) + 6 HCl(aq) → 2 AlCl3(aq) + 3 H2(g)
