Sodium and chlorine react to form sodium chloride. If there are 1.4 moles of sodium used, how many moles of chlorine were required?

Respuesta :

AMH2005

Answer:

0.7 moles of Chlorine gas is required.

Explanation:

The reaction is balanced as follows:

2Na + [tex]Cl_{2}[/tex] ------>  2NaCl

According to stoichiometry,

2 mole Sodium reacts with 1 mole Chlorine gas

∴1 mole Sodium reacts with 1/2 moles of Chlorine gas

∴1.4 mole sodium reacts with 1.4/2 moles of Chlorine gas

                                                = 0.7 moles of Chlorine gas

So, 0.7 moles of Chlorine gas is required.
