As per balanced chemical equation, 2 moles of FeCl3 reacts with 3 moles of H2S.

0.308 moles of FeCl3 will react with of H2S. But 1.17 moles of H2S are present. Hence, H2S is excess reagent and FeCl3 is the limiting reagent.

2 moles of FeCl3 gives 6 moles of HCl.0.308 moles of FeCl3 will give

Molar mass of HCl is 36.5 g/mol.
