Answer:
0.7 moles of Chlorine gas is required.
Explanation:
The reaction is balanced as follows:
2Na +
------> 2NaCl
According to stoichiometry,
2 mole Sodium reacts with 1 mole Chlorine gas
∴1 mole Sodium reacts with 1/2 moles of Chlorine gas
∴1.4 mole sodium reacts with 1.4/2 moles of Chlorine gas
= 0.7 moles of Chlorine gas
So, 0.7 moles of Chlorine gas is required.
Coal releases carbon dioxide when burned. The reaction looks like this:
C(s)+O₂(g)→CO₂(g)
I hope this helps. Let me know in the comments if anything is unclear.
