Here we have to choose the right option which tells the moles of CaCl₂ will react with 6.2 moles of AgNO₃ in the reaction
2AgNO₃ + CaCl₂→ 2AgCl + Ca(NO₃)₂
6.2 moles of silver nitrate (AgNO₃) will react with B. 3.1 moles of calcium chloride (CaCl₂).
From the reaction: 2AgNO₃ + CaCl₂→ 2AgCl + Ca(NO₃)₂
Thus 2 moles of AgNO₃ reacts with 1 mole of CaCl₂
Henceforth, 6.2 moles of AgNO₃ reacts with = 3.1 moles of CaCl₂.
1 mole of CaCl₂ reacts with 2 moles of AgNO₃. Thus-
A. 2.2 moles of CaCl₂ will react with 2.2×2 = 4.4 moles of AgNO₃.
C. 6.2 moles of CaCl₂ will reacts with 6.2×2 = 12.4 moles of AgNO₃.
D. 12.4 moles of CaCl₂ will reacts with 12.4 × 2 = 24.8 moles of AgNO₃
Thus the right answer is 6.2 moles of AgNO₃ will react with 3.1 moles of CaCl₂.
