Answer: The coefficient in front of AgCl when the equation is properly balanced is 2.
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.
Decomposition is a type of chemical reaction in which one reactant gives two or more than two products.
Decomposition of silver chloride is represented as:

Thus the coefficient in front of AgCl when the equation is properly balanced is 2.
Answer:
869 g Cl₂O
Explanation:
To find the theoretical yield of Cl₂O, you need to (1) convert moles SO₂ to moles Cl₂O (via mole-to-mole ratio from reaction coefficients) and then (2) convert moles Cl₂O to grams Cl₂O (via molar mass). It is important to arrange the conversions/ratios in a way that allows for the cancellation of units (the desired unit should be in the numerator). The final answer should have 3 sig figs to reflect the sig figs of the given amount (10.0 moles).
1 SO₂ (g) + 2 Cl₂ (g) ----> 1 SOCl₂ (g) + 1 Cl₂O (g)
Molar Mass (Cl₂O): 2(35.453 g/mol) + 15.998 g/mol
Molar Mass (Cl₂O): 86.904 g/mol
10.0 moles SO₂ 1 mole Cl₂O 86.904 g
------------------------ x ---------------------- x ------------------ = 869 g Cl₂O
1 mole SO₂ 1 mole
