Molar mass is the mass of one stable molecule of a compound, that cannot join with another molecule of the same kind to form a new one, while an empirical formula is the molecular formula in its simplest form. E.g. empirical formula of ethene is CH2while its molecular formula is C2H4.
Physical because it is still H2O
Answer:
Moles of NaCl formed is 6.0 moles
Explanation:
We are given the equation;
2 Na(s) + Cl₂(g) → 2 NaCl(s)
- Moles of Na is 6.0 moles
- Moles of Cl₂ is 4.0 moles
From the reaction;
2 moles of sodium reacts with 1 mole of chlorine gas to form 2 moles of NaCl
In this case;
6 moles of Na would require 3 moles of Cl₂, this means that chlorine gas is in excess.
Thus, the rate limiting reagent is sodium.
But, 2 moles of sodium reacts to form 2 moles of NaCl
Therefore;
Moles of NaCl = Moles of Na
= 6.0 moles
Thus, moles of sodium chloride produced is 6.0 moles
