Na + Cl2 --&gt; NaCl if you were given 15 grams of sodium (with excess chlorine) and asked to determine the amount of NaCl that
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

The correct answer is - 38.15 gm of NaCl.

Explanation:

Write the balanced equation for this reaction of sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl₂) to produce sodium chloride (NaCl):

2Na + Cl₂ —> 2NaCl

the mass of Na and the mass of NaCl :

Molar mass of Na = 23 g/mol

In the balanced equation = 2 × 23 = 46 g

Molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5

= 58.5 g/mol

similarly in balanced equation = 2 × 58.5 = 117 g

From the balanced equation above,

46 g of Na reacted to produce 117 g of NaCl.

By converting it to 15 grams of Na.

Therefore,15 g of Na will react to produce = (15 × 117)/46 = 38.15 g of NaCl.

Thus, 38.15 g of Na

If the force exerted on a sled is 100 N and the mass of the sled is 50 kg, what is the acceleration of the sled?
Anna35 [415]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

acceleration= 2 m/s²

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>

From the second Newton's Law of motion the resultant force is directly proportional to the rate of change in momentum.

That is;

F = ma

Thus; F = 100 N, m = 50 kg

a = F/m

  = 100/50

  = 2 m/s²
