Based on the chemical reaction below, if you produce 109.34 moles of Na, how

many g of Cl2 were produced? 2NaCl (s) -> 2Na(s) + Cl2(g) *

Respuesta :

Answer: 3881 g of [tex]Cl_2[/tex] will be produced along with 109.34 moles of Na

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation is:

[tex]2NaCl(s)\rightarrow 2Na(s)+Cl_2(g)[/tex]  

According to stoichiometry :

2 moles of [tex]Na[/tex] are produced along with = 1 mole of [tex]Cl_2[/tex]

Thus 109.34 moles of [tex]Na[/tex] will produced along with=[tex]\frac{1}{2}\times 109.34=54.67moles[/tex]  of [tex]Cl_2[/tex]

Mass of [tex]Cl_2=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=54.67moles\times 71g/mol=3881g[/tex]

Thus 3881 g of [tex]Cl_2[/tex] will be produced along with 109.34 moles of Na
