Oxidation, Dissolving in acid, Hydrolysis ,Water absorption and Hydration
<span>Mol is the unit of amount of substance. It is equal to 6.02 x 10^23 molecules. Now, One mol of Sodium chloride (NaCl) contains 6.022x 10^23 molecules of NaCl. Also, the number atoms of both Na (sodium) and Cl (chlorine) will be equal. Similatly, One mol of Aluminium Chloride (AlCl3) contains 6.022x 10^23 molecules of (AlCl3) but the ratio of Al and Cl atoms will be 1:3</span>
NOTE question is incorrect: The question should be:
<span>How many moles of KCLO4 can be produced with 3.45 moles of KCl. Assume all other reactants are in excess.
.......................................................................................................................
The reaction involving formation of KClO4 is
NaClO4 + KCl </span>→ KClO4 + NaCl
From above reaction, it can be seen that 1 mole of NaClO4 reacts with 1 mole of KCl to generate 1 mole of KClO4
Thus, if all other reactant are in excess, 3.45 moles of KCl will react with 3.45 moles of NaClO4 to form 3.45 moles of KClO4.
The atoms are rearranged...
