The theoretical yield of NaCl : 15 mol

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

15 mol Na

15 mol Cl₂

Required

The theoretical yield of NaCl

Solution

Reaction

2Na + Cl₂ ⇒ 2NaCl

A theoretical yield is the amount of product that you calculate from the reaction equation according to the product and reactant coefficients

Find limiting reactant (mol : coefficient) :

Na = 15 : 2 = 7.5

Cl₂ = 15 : 1 = 15

The limiting reactant = Na(smaller ratio)

Mol of NaCl based on mol Na as limiting reactant.

From the equation, mol ratio of Na : NaCl = 2 : 2, so mol NaCl = 15 mol

A solution is prepared by adding 100 mL of 1.0 M HC₂H₃O₂(aq) to 100 mL of 1.0 M NaC₂H₃O₂(aq). The solution is stirred and its pH

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When an acid or base is added to a solution then any resistance by the solution in changing the pH of the solution is known as a buffer.

This is because a buffer has the ability to not get affected by the addition of small amounts of an acid or a base. As a result, it helps in maintaining the pH of the solution.

In the give case, when we add the HCl then more number of protons will dissociate. This causes the acetate to react with the protons and leads to the formation of acetic acid.

We know that acetic acid is a weak acid and it dissociates partially or feebly. Therefore, no change in pH will take place.

Thus, we can conclude that equation $H_{3}O^{+}(aq) + C_{2}H_{3}O^{-}_{2}(aq) \rightarrow HC_{2}H_{3}O_{2}(aq) + H_{2}O(l)$ represents the chemical reaction that accounts for the fact that acid was added but there was no detectable change in pH.
