Answer:

[tex]74.64\ \text{g}[/tex]

Explanation:

Reactants

Magnesium = 24.3 g

Hydrogen chloride= x g

Products

Hydrogen gas = 2.04 g

Magnesium chloride = 96.9 g

As the mass of the reactions is conserved we have

Mass of reactants = Mass of products

[tex]24.3+x=2.04+96.9\\\Rightarrow x=2.04+96.9-24.3\\\Rightarrow x=74.64\ \text{g}[/tex]

Mass of hydrogen chloride is [tex]74.64\ \text{g}[/tex].
