Antacids, such as Alka-Seltzer, use the reaction of sodium bicarbonate with citric acid in water solution to produce a fizz as f

ollows: 3NaHCO3 + C6H8O7 → 3CO2 + 3H2O + Na3C6H5O7 If 4.11 g of the citric acid (C6H8O7, MW = 192 g/mol) react with excess sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO3), how many grams of carbon dioxide (CO2, MW = 44 g/mol) are formed as the solution fizzes?

Answer:

2.8248 g

Explanation:

First, consider the balanced chemical equation:

3NaHCO_{3} +C_{6}H_{8}O_{7} --->3CO_{2} +3H_{2}O +Na_{3}C_{6}H_{5}O_{7}\\

Then we calculate the number of moles in 4.11 g of citric acid:

n(citric acid)=\frac{4.11g}{192g/mol}=0.0214mol

According to the balanced reaction, one mole of citric acid produces 3 moles of carbon dioxide. That's 3 times the number f moles of citric acid. So we will do the same with the available number of moles of citric acid.

so n(carbon dioxide) = 0.0214 mol*3=0.0642 mol

mass(carbon dioxide)= mass*molar mass=0.0642 mol* 44g/mol

                                                                   = 2.8248 g

The compound ncl3 is nitrogen trichloride, but alcl3 is simply aluminum chloride. why
AveGali [126]
The answer to this question would be:
NCl3 is a molecular compound (two or more nonmetals), and therefore in its name prefixes indicate the number of each type of atom. so NCl3 is nitrogen trichloride<span>.
</span><span>The compound AlCl3 is an ionic compound (metal and nonmetal), and therefore does not require prefixes. so AlCl3 is aluminum chloride.
</span><span>
Both of nitrogen and chlorine is nonmetal, but aluminum is metal. Metal with nonmetal will make an ionic compound that doesn't need prefixes.</span>
