When aluminum metal is made to contact with chlorine gas (Cl₂), a highly exothermic reaction proceeds. This produces aluminum chloride (AlCl₃) powder. The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is shown below:
2Al(s) + 3Cl₂(g) → 2AlCl₃(s)
Since it was stated that aluminum is in excess, this means that the amount of AlCl₃ produced will only depend on the amount of Cl₂ gas available. The molar mass of Cl₂ is 70.906 g/mol. Using stoichiometry, we have the following equation:
(21.0 g Cl₂/ 70.906 g/mol Cl₂) x 2 mol AlCl₃/ 2 mol Cl₂ = 0.1974 mol AlCl₃
Thus, we have determined that 0.1974 <span>moles of aluminum chloride can be produced from 21.0 g of chlorine gas. </span>
As the metal rusts it expands increasing its mass therefore increasing the weight.
Answer:
No, it is not enthalpy favored since the chemical system gains energy.
Explanation:
The dissolution of ammonium nitrate in water is an endothermic process.
Endothermic process requires the system to gain energy to can dissolve the particles in water.
So, the reaction is not enthalpy favored.
Unsaturated organic compounds with a carbon-to-carbon double bond and alkynes with a carbon-to-carbon triple bond, as well as aldehydes and ketones with a carbon-to-oxygen double bond, undergo addition reactions.
Answer:phosphates are insoluble in water
