How many moles of chlorine are used up in a reaction that produces 0.35kg of BCl3
maw [93]

4.48 mol Cl2. A reaction that produces 0.35 kg of BCl3 will use 4.48 mol of Cl2.

(a) The <em>balanced chemical equation </em>is

2B + 3Cl2 → 2BCl3

(b) Convert kilograms of BCl3 to moles of BCl3

MM: B = 10.81; Cl = 35.45; BCl3 = 117.16

Moles of BCl3 = 350 g BCl3 x (1 mol BCl3/117.16 g BCl3) = 2.987 mol BCl3

(c) Use the <em>molar ratio</em> of Cl2:BCl3 to calculate the moles of Cl2.

Moles of Cl2 = 2.987 mol BCl3 x (3 mol Cl2/2 mol BCl3) = 4.48 mol Cl2

When a molecule of NAD+ (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) gains a hydrogen atom (not a proton), the molecule becomes _____. Wh
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Reduced

Explanation:

NAD⁺ is an intermediate electron acceptor, acting as an oxidant (together with FAD⁺) that participates in cellular respiration as a fundamental reagent, gaining a hydrogen atom (H) in this process, becoming NADH which will later be oxidized.

This process of converting NAD⁺ to NADH (and FAD⁺ converted to FADH₂) by gaining a hydrogen atom is called reduction.
