If you had excess aluminum, how many moles of aluminum chloride could be produced from 21.0 g of chlorine gas, cl2?

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>

How does a metric prefix modify a unit?
Daniel [21]

Answer:Locate the row corresponding to known unit of torque along the left of the table. Multiply by the factor under the column for the desired units. For example, to convert 2 oz-in torque to n-m, locate oz-in row at table left. Locate 7.062 x 10-3 at intersection of desired n-m units column. Multiply 2 oz-in x (7.062 x 10-3 ) = 14.12 x 10-3 n-m.

Converting between units is easy if you have a set of equivalencies to work with. Suppose we wanted to convert an energy quantity of 2500 calories into watt-hours. What we would need to do is find a set of equivalent figures for those units. In our reference here, we see that 251.996 calories is physically equal to 0.293071 watt hour. To convert from calories into watt-hours, we must form a “unity fraction” with these physically equal figures (a fraction composed of different figures and different units, the numerator and denominator being physically equal to one another), placing the desired unit in the numerator and the initial unit in the denominator, and then multiply our initial value of calories by that fraction.

Explanation:

Since both terms of the “unity fraction” are physically equal to one another, the fraction as a whole has a physical value of 1, and so does not change the true value of any figure when multiplied by it. When units are canceled, however, there will be a change in units. For example, 2500 calories multiplied by the unity fraction of (0.293071 w-hr / 251.996 cal) = 2.9075 watt-hours.

For all the chemistry people out there. Explain why Benzene is more stable that 1,3,5-hexatriene? ...?
Triss [41]
Benzene is more stable because it contains a ring and therefore an aromatic compound. On the other hand, 1,3,5-hexatriene, as a straight-chain alkene, is aliphatic. Aromatic compounds in general are more stable than their aliphatic counterparts because pi electrons are part of a conjugated system, meaning they are "shared" amongst all double-bonded atoms.

In a chemical reaction how does the mass of the products compare with the mass of the reaction a greater thenb less thenc equal
Neko [114]
D.) It depends cuz no yeild is 100%..I mean side reactions also occur in most of the reactions. So mass of the reactant is not equal to the mass of the product. Hope it helps
