Explanation:
the best way to understand the age of the earth is to estimate the age of matirials in it
Answer:
3.62moles
Explanation:
First let us generate a balanced equation for the reaction
2Na + Cl2 —> 2NaCl
Molar Mass of Na = 23g/mol
Mass of Na from the balanced equation = 2 x 23 = 46g
Molar Mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5g/mol
Mass of NaCl from the balanced equation = 2 x 58.5 = 117g
From the question,
46g of Na produced 117g of NaCl.
Therefore, 83g of Na will produce = (83 x 117)/46 = 211.11g of NaCl
Converting this mass (211.11g of NaCl) to mole, we obtain:
n = Mass /Molar Mass
n = 211.11/ 58.5
3.62moles
