Answer:

Chlorine gas.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, the undergoing chemical reaction is:

2Na+Cl_2\rightarrow 2NaCl

Thus, given the moles of reacting both sodium and chlorine, we compute the moles of sodium chloride yielded by each reactant by considering the 2:2 and 1:2 mole ratios:

n_{NaCl}^{by\ Na}=6.70molNa*\frac{2molNaCl}{2molNa}=6.70molNaCl \\\\n_{NaCl}^{by\ Cl_2}=3.20molCl_2*\frac{2molNaCl}{1molCl_2}=6.40molNaCl

Thus, since chlorine yields less moles of sodium chloride, we infer it is the limiting reactant.

Best regards!

FrozenT [24]
A colloid has the particles that have the ability to scatter light called the Tyndall effect named after the scientist named Tyndall. A suspension has large suspended particles that settle out at the bottom of the container. A solution has small particles that are evenly distributed throughout. Hence the answer is choice 2.
