The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. The number of protons define the identity of an element.
Explanation:
In liquids, the molecules are held by less strong intermolecular forces of attraction as compared to solids. Due to which they are able to slide past each other. Hence, they have medium kinetic energy.
In gases, the molecules are held by weak Vander waal forces. Hence, they have high kinetic energy due to which they move rapidly from one place to another leading to more number of collisions.
So, when at 298 K and 1 atm
exists in liquid state and
exists as a gas then it means there occurs strong force of attraction between the molecules of
due to which it exists in liquid form.
Thus, we can conclude that at 298 K and 1 atm, bromine is a liquid with a high vapor pressure, whereas chlorine is a gas. This provides evidence that, under these conditions, the forces among
molecules are greater than those among
molecules.
The chemical reaction would be written as:
2Na + Cl2 = 2NaCl
Since we are given the amounts of the reactants available for reaction, we have to determine the limiting reactant. And use this amount to calculate for the theoretical yield.
55 g Na ( 1 mol / 22.99 g ) = 2.39 mol Na
67.2 f Cl2 ( 1 mol / 70.9 g ) = 0.95 mol Cl2
Therefore, the limiting reactant would be Cl2 since it is the one consumed completely.
0.95 Cl2 ( 1 mol NaCl / 1 mol Cl2) = 0.95 NaCl produced from the reaction
