First, let's state the chemical reaction:
We can find the number of moles of Cl2 required to produce 0.0923 moles of AlCl3, doing a rule of three: 3 moles of Cl2 reacted produces 2 moles of AlCl3:
The calculation would be:
And the final step is to convert this number of moles to grams. Remember that the molar mass can be calculated using the periodic table, so the molar mass of Cl2 is 70.8 g/mol, and the conversion is:
The answer is that we need 9.770 grams of Cl2 to produce 0.0923 moles of AlCl3.
Explanation:
If the concentration of a substance is changed, the equilibrium will shift to minimise the effect of that change. If the concentration of a reactant is increased the equilibrium will shift in the direction of the reaction that uses the reactants, so that the reactant concentration decreases. For example, decreased volume and therefore increased concentration of both reactants and products for the following reaction at equilibrium will shift the system toward more products.
A general formula of an acid always start with an hydronium ion or H+. The general formula of an acid have to end with an anion. As acids, these compounds are named starting with the prefix "hydro-," then adding the first syllable of the anion, then the suffix "-ic."
