How many moles of FeCl3 could be produced from 6.1 moles of Cly? 2 Fe + 3Cl2 —> 2 FeCl2
1 answer:
Answer:
4.1 moles of FeCl₃
Explanation:
The reaction expression is given as shown below:
2Fe + 3Cl₂ → 2FeCl₃
Number of moles of Cl₂ = 6.1moles
So;
We know that from the balanced reaction expression:
3 moles of Cl₂ will produce 2 moles of FeCl₃
Therefore 6.1moles of Cl₂ will produce = 4.1 moles of FeCl₃
The number of moles is 4.1 moles of FeCl₃

Alkaline earth metal are the elements present in II group in the periodic table and are known as 'Metals' and have a charge of +2.
Alkaline earth metals - Be , Mg Ca, Sr , Ba, Ra
Halogens are present in VII A group in the periodic table and are 'Non-metals' and have a charge of -1.
Halogens - F, Cl, Br, I, At
When Alkaline earth metal (metals) combine with Halogens (non-metals) the compound formed will be ionic compound and the formula of the compound will be based on the charges of the element.
When we write the formula of the ionic compound the charges of the elements get criss crossed.
For example - Mg (Alkaline earth metal) have a charge of +2 and Cl (Halogen) have a charge of -1 and when they combine to form the formula their charges get criss crossed and we will get or
When an alkaline earth metal, A, reacts with a halogen, X, the formula of the Ionic compound formed should be
