Answer:

See explanation and image attached

Explanation:

Yttrium has many isotopes, the lowest mass number of Yttrium  is 89Y.

Recall that electron capture converts an electron into a proton and then into a neutron with a consequent emission of a neutrino (v).

In electron capture, the mass number of the daughter nucleus remains the same as that of the parent nucleus while the atomic number of the daughter nucleus is less than that of the parent by one unit.

How many moles of PC15 can be produced from 51.0 g of Cl2 (and excess P4)?
slava [35]

Answer:

0.287 mole of PCl5.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole in 51g of Cl2. This is illustrated below:

Molar mass of Cl2 = 2 x 35.5 = 71g/mol

Mass of Cl2 = 51g

Number of mole of Cl2 =..?

Mole = Mass /Molar Mass

Number of mole of Cl2 = 51/71 = 0.718 mole

Next, we shall write the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

P4 + 10Cl2 → 4PCl5

Finally, we determine the number of mole of PCl5 produced from the reaction as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

10 moles of Cl2 reacted to produce 4 moles of PCl5.

Therefore, 0.718 mole of Cl2 will react to produce = (0.718 x 4)/10 = 0.287 mole of PCl5.

Therefore, 0.287 mole of PCl5 is produced from the reaction.
