Answer:

1.79 mol.

Explanation:

For the balanced reaction:

2NaCl + F₂ → 2NaF + Cl₂.

It is clear that 2 mol of NaCl react with 1 mol of F₂ to produce 2 mol of NaF and 1 mol of Cl₂.

Firstly, we can get the no. of moles of F₂ gas using the general law of ideal gas: PV = nRT.

where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm (P = 1.2 atm).

V is the volume of the gas in L (V = 18.3 L).

n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol (n = ??? mol).

R is the general gas constant (R = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K),

T is the temperature of the gas in K (299 K).

∴ no. of moles of F₂ (n) = PV/RT = (1.2 atm)(18.3 L)/(0.0821 L.atm/mol.K)(299 K) = 0.895 mol.

Now, we can find the no. of moles of NaCl is needed to react with 0.895 mol of F₂:

Using cross multiplication:

2 mol of NaCl is needed to react with → 1 mol of F₂, from stichiometry.

??? mol of NaCl is needed to react with → 0.895 mol of F₂.

∴ The no. of moles of NaCl needed = (2 mol)(0.895 mol)/(1 mol) = 1.79 mol.

BRAINLIEST IF CORRECT

otez555 [7]

In a food chain, energy is passed through one link to another. When a herbivore eats only a certain fraction of the energy, (which comes from the food) it becomes new body mass; the rest of the energy is lost as waste or used up by the herbivore in order to carry out its life processes (ex. movement, digestion, reproduction). It doesn’t necessarily threaten the plants survival, there’s also a benefit. When a animals poops out the fruit (defecate) in another area those seeds get carried to new places with the help of a dab of fertilizer and a little bit of moisture. They also help supply nutrients when they die and decompose.

Describe how the height of the tides changes from Monday to Thursday.

adoni [48]

One of the results is that the moon is near the earth and the other one, the oceans tide. Even though the earth can hold any object within
ts proximity, the ocean is partly attracted due to its liquid property. At night, the ocean tends to be attracted to the moon by creating a bulge and assigning it as ‘high tide’. This is due to the strong gravitational pull of th moon to the earth.

Rank the compounds in each set in order of increasing acid strength.

Viktor [21]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

For this question, we have to remember the effect of an atom with high electronegativity as "Br". If the "Br" atom is closer to the carboxylic acid group (COOH) we will have an inductive effect. Due to the electronegativity of Br, the electrons of the C-H bond would be to the Br, then this bond would be weaker and the compound will be more acid (because is easier to produce the hydronium ion $H^+$ ).

With this in mind, for A in the last compound, we have 2 Br atoms near to the acid carboxylic group, so, we will have a high inductive effect, then the C-H would be weaker and we will have more acidity. Then we will have the compound with only 1 Br atom and finally, the last compound would be the one without Br atoms.

In B, the difference between the molecules is the position of the "Br" atom in the molecule. If the Br atom is closer to the acid group we will have a higher inductive effect and more acidity.

See figure 1
