Question

How many grams of Cl2 will be produced along with 250.0 kJ of heat in the following reaction? PCl5(g) + 87.9 kJ PCl3(g) + Cl2(g)

Answer 1

As per the given chemical equation, 1 mole of Cl₂ is formed when 87.9 kJ of heat is absorbed.

Therefore, 250.0 kJ of heat will yield

\frac{1 mol Cl2}{87.9 kJ } \\  x 250.0 kJ = 2.84 mol Cl₂

Molar mass of mol Cl₂ = 71 g /mol

Mass of Cl₂ =2.84 mol Cl₂ x 71 g /mol = 201.64 g

201.64 g of Cl₂ will be produced along with 250.0 kJ of heat in the given reaction.

Answer 2

250 kJ/87.9 KJ per mole Cl2 * 71g/mole= 202 g It is D for plato users
