Answer:
This description needs a unit describing the system of measurement.
Answer:
Sodium is a silvery-white metal that reacts with chlorine gas, which is a yellow-greenish gas that is toxic. The reaction gives off a lot of heat. After the reaction, which statement is true about the chemical properties of the product, sodium chloride?
Pure sodium reacts violently and sometimes explosively with water producing sodium hydroxide, hydrogen gas and heat
2Na(s) + 2H2O(l) → 2NaOH(aq) + H2(g)
Chlorine is a very poisonous yellow green gas with a sharp odour that was used in gas warfare during WW1
Sodium and chlorine reacts with each other, however, to produce one of the most familiar substance used in cooking and preservation industry today Sodium Chloride or Common salt or table salt in the irreversible equation;
2Na(s) + Cl2(g) → 2NaCl(s)
Explanation:
It is easy to see why this reaction takes place so readily sodium has one electron in its outermost valence shell while chlorine has seven electrons in its valence shell. when sodium atom transfers one electron to chlorine atom forming a sodium cation (Na+) and a chloride anion (Cl-) both ions have complete valence shells and are energetically more stable. the reaction is extremely exothermic, producing a bright yellow light and a great deal of heat and fumes of sodium chloride.
In a reaction observation of the reaction process you will see sodium flares up almost immediately upon reaction with water.
Answer:
What is the oxidation half reaction for iron?
The two elements involved, iron and chlorine, each change oxidation state; iron from +2 to +3, chlorine from 0 to -1. There are then effectively two half-reactions occurring. These changes can be represented in formulas by inserting appropriate electrons into each half-reaction: Fe2+ → Fe3+ + e.

B is the correct answer to your question
Answer:
Approximately
.
Explanation:
Balanced equation for this reaction:
.
Look up the relative atomic mass of elements in the limiting reactant,
, as well as those in the product of interest,
:
Calculate the formula mass for both the limiting reactant and the product of interest:
.
.
Calculate the quantity of the limiting reactant (
) available to this reaction:
.
Refer to the balanced equation for this reaction. The coefficients of the limiting reactant (
) and the product (
) are both
. Thus:
.
In other words, for every
of
formula units that are consumed,
of
formula units would (in theory) be produced. Thus, calculate the theoretical yield of

.
Calculate the theoretical yield of this experiment in terms of the mass of
expected to be produced:
.
Given that the actual yield in this question (in terms of the mass of
) is
, calculate the percentage yield of this experiment:
