7 × 10² pounds of Cl₂ would be produced in a typical 8-h operating day.

<h3>What is Stoichiometry ?</h3>

Stoichiometry helps us use the balanced chemical equation to measures quantitative relationships and it is to calculate the amount of products and reactants that are given in a reaction.

<h3>What is Balanced chemical equation ?</h3>

The balanced chemical equation is the equation in which the number of atoms on the reactants side is equal to the number of atoms on the product side in an equation.

2Cl⁻ (aq) → Cl (g) + 2e⁻

According to stoichiometry, moles of Cl₂

= (3 \times 10^4\ A) \left (\frac{\frac{C}{s}}{A} \right ) \left (\frac{3600\ s}{h} \right ) (8h) \left (\frac{1\ \text{mol}\ e^{-}}{9.65 \times 10^4\ C} \right ) \left (\frac{1\ \text{mol}\ Cl_2}{2\ \text{mol}\ e^-} \right )

= 4477 moles

Pounds Cl₂

= (4477\ \text{moles}\ Cl_2) \left (\frac{70.90\ g\ Cl_2}{\text{mol}} \right ) \left (\frac{1\ kg}{1000\ g} \right ) \left (\frac{2.205\ lb}{1\ kg} \right )

= 7 × 10² lb

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that 7 × 10² pounds of Cl₂ would be produced in a typical 8-h operating day.

When the vapor pressure of a liquid is equal to the atmospheric pressure, the liquid
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

The liquid will boil.

Explanation:

Boiling will occur when the vapor pressure is equal to the atmospheric pressure. This is called the boiling point. Without any external pressure the liquid molecules will be able to spread out and change from a liquid to a gas.

If 200.4g of water is mixed with 101.42g of salt the mass of the final solution would be reported as
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

301.8 g

Explanation:

We prepare a solution with 200.4 g of water (solvent) and 101.42 g of salt (solute). The mass of the solution is equal to the sum of the mass of the solvent and the mass of the solute.

m(solution) = m(solute) + m(solvent)

m(solution) = 200.4 g + 101.42 g

m(solution) = 301.8 g (we round-off to one decimal according to the significant figures rules)

Which has not been a major source of CFCs
ipn [44]

Answer : Any natural sources of CFC's are not known only the major sources like aerosols, propellants, refrigerants,etc are known. So, if any natural sources are given then it cannot be called as a major source for emitting CFC into environment.

Calculate the concentration in % (m/m) of a solution containing 30.0g of mgcl2 dissolved in 270.0g of h20
qaws [65]
As the question tells you, you need to use the formula

% mass= mass of solute/ mass of solution x 100

mass solute= 30.0 g
mass of solution= 30.0 + 270.0= 300.0 g

% mass= 30.0/ 300.0 x 100= 10%

answer is B

Using the reaction below: 2 CO2(g) + 2 H2O(l) → C2H4(g) + 3 O2(g) ΔHrxn= +1411.1 kJ What would be the heat of reaction for this
maw [93]

Answer:  d) -705.55 kJ

Explanation:

Heat of reaction is the change of enthalpy during a chemical reaction with all substances in their standard states.

2CO_2(g)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow C_2H_4(g)+3O_2(g) \Delta H=+1411.1kJ

Reversing the reaction, changes the sign of \Delta H

C_2H_4(g)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2CO_2(g)+2H_2O(l)

\Delta H=-1411.1kJ

On multiplying the reaction by \frac{1}{2} , enthalpy gets half:

0.5C_2H_4(g)+1.5O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+H_2O(l)\Delta H=\frac{1}{2}\times -1411.1kJ=-705.55kJ/mol

Thus the enthalpy change for the given reaction is -705.55kJ
