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>
Answer: The heat required to melt 25.0 g of ice at
is 8350 Joules
Explanation:
Heat of Fusion tells us how much energy is needed to convert 1g of a solid to a liquid at the same temperature.
Q = Heat absorbed = ?
m = mass of ice = 25.0 g
L = Latent heat of fusion of ice = 334 J/g
Putting in the values, we get:
Thus heat required to melt 25.0 g of ice at
is 8350 Joules
