Answer:
0.7 moles of Chlorine gas is required.
Explanation:
The reaction is balanced as follows:
2Na +
------> 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.
8 valence electrons means that the element is stable. When we hear stable, we know the group to look at! Noble gases all have 8 valence electrons making them stable and have a full octet.
Here are some:-
Krypton
Argon
Neon
Answer:
182.3 g
Explanation:
number of mols of HCl = 5 mols
molecular weight of HCl = 36.46 g/mol
m = mass of HCl = number of mols x molecular weight
m = 5 mols * 36.46 g/mol
m = 182.3 g
We are given the number of moles:
O = 1.36 mol
H = 4.10 mol
C = 2.05 mol
To get the empirical formula, first divide everything by
the smallest number of moles = 1.36 mol. So that:
O = 1 mol
H = 3 mol
C = 1.5 mol
Next step is to multiply everything by a number such that
all will be a whole number. In this case, multiply by 2 to get a whole number
for C, so that:
O = 2 mol
H = 6 mol
C = 3 mol
Therefore the empirical formula of the compound is:
C3H6O2
