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
I think it might be the second one sorry if I’m wrong
