Sodium reacts with chlorine gas according to the following reaction: 2Na(s)+Cl2(g)→2NaCl(s) What volume of Cl2 gas, measured at

asambeis [7]

Answer:6.719Litres of Cl2 gas.

Explanation:According to eqn of rxn

2Na +Cl2=2NaCl

P=689torr=689/760=0.91atm

T=39°C+273=312K

according to stoichiometry of the reaction,1Moles of Cl2 gives 2moles of NaCl

But 28g of NaCl was given,we have to convert this to moles by using the relation, n=mass/MW

MW of NaCl=23+35.5=58.5g/mol

n=28g(mass given of NaCl)/58.5

n=0.479moles of NaCl

Going back to the reaction,

if 1moles of Cl2 produces 2moles of NaCl

x moles of Cl2 will give 0.479moles of NaCl.

x=0.479*1/2

x=0.239moles of Cl2.

To find the volume, we use ideal ggas eqn,PV=nRT

V=nRT/P

V=0.239*0.082*312/0.91

V=6.719Litres

If 3.18 x 10^23 atoms of iron react with 67.2 L of chlorine gas at STP, what is the maximum

spin [16.1K]

84.34 grams of grams of iron (III) chloride that can be produced is maximum because Fe is the limiting reagent in this reaction and chlorine gas is excess reagent.

Explanation:

Balanced chemical equation:

2 Fe + 3 Cl2 → 2 FeCl3

DATA GIVEN:

iron = atoms

mass of chlorine gas = 67.2 liters

mass of FeCl3 = ?

number of moles of iron will be calculated as

number of moles = $\frac{total number of atoms}{Avagaro's number}$

number of moles = $\frac{3.18 x 10^23}{6.022x 10^23}$

number of moles = 0.52 moles of iron

moles of chlorine gas

number of moles = $\frac{mass}{molar mass of 1 mole}$

Putting the values in the equation:

n = $\frac{67200}{70.96}$ (atomic mass of chlorine gas = 70.96 grams/mole)

= 947.01 moles

Fe is the limiting reagent so

2 moles of Fe gives 2 moles of FeCl3

0.52 moles of Fe will give

$\frac{2}{2}$ = $\frac{x}{0.52}$

0.52 moles of FeCl3 is formed.

to convert it into grams:

mass = n X atomic mass

= 0.52 x 162.2 (atomic mass of FeCl3 is 162.2grams/mole)

<h3> = 84.34 grams </h3>

The density of liquid Z is 0.9237 g/mL. A student masses a cup

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

37.65mL

Explanation:

Given parameters:

density of liquid Z = 0.9237g/mL

Mass of liquidZ + mass of cup = 50.7g

Mass of cup= 15.92g

Volume of liquid Z in cup=?

Solution:

Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance. It is mathematically expressed as shown below:

Density = $\frac{mass}{volume}$

To find the volume of liquid Z, we know the density of the liquid but we dont know the mass yet.

Mass of liquidZ = 50.7g - mass of cup = 50.7g - 15.92g = 34.98g

Therefore:

Volume of liquidZ = $\frac{mass of liquidZ}{density of liquidZ}$

= $\frac{34.98}{0.9237}$

= 37.65mL

Use enthalpies of formation given in appendix c to calculate δh for the reaction br2(g)→2br(g), and use this value to estimate t

Contact [7]

Given reaction represents dissociation of bromine gas to form bromine atoms

Br2(g) ↔ 2Br(g)

The enthalpy of the above reaction is given as:

ΔH = ∑n(products)Δ $H^{0}f(products)$ - ∑n(reactants)Δ $H^{0}f(reactants)$

where n = number of moles

Δ $H^{0}f$ = enthalpy of formation

ΔH = [2*ΔH(Br(g)) - ΔH(Br2(g))] = 2*111.9 - 30.9 = 192.9 kJ/mol

Thus, enthalpy of dissociation is the bond energy of Br-Br = 192.9 kJ/mol
