Generic name
1. Species names are binominal (i.e., consist of two words). The first word is the generic name. The second word has been called "specific name" or "specific epithet" -- but it is not the species name.

Na + Cl2 --> NaCl if you were given 15 grams of sodium (with excess chlorine) and asked to determine the amount of NaCl that
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 38.15 gm of NaCl.

Explanation:

Write the balanced equation for this reaction of sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl₂) to produce sodium chloride (NaCl):

2Na + Cl₂ —> 2NaCl

the mass of Na and the mass of NaCl :

Molar mass of Na = 23 g/mol

In the balanced equation = 2 × 23 = 46 g

Molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5

= 58.5 g/mol

similarly in balanced equation = 2 × 58.5 = 117 g

From the balanced equation above,

46 g of Na reacted to produce 117 g of NaCl.

By converting it to 15 grams of Na.

Therefore,15 g of Na will react to produce = (15 × 117)/46 = 38.15 g of NaCl.

Thus, 38.15 g of Na
