Taking into account the reaction stoichiometry, 1.729 grams of NaCl is formed.

<h3>Reaction stoichiometry</h3>

In first place, the balanced reaction is:

CuCl₂ + 2 NaNO₃ → Cu(NO₃)₂ + 2 NaCl

By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of moles of each compound participate in the reaction:

  • CuCl₂: 1 mole
  • NaNO₃: 2 moles
  • Cu(NO₃)₂ : 1 mole
  • NaCl: 2 moles

The molar mass of the compounds is:

  • CuCl₂: 134.44 g/mole
  • NaNO₃: 85 g/mole
  • Cu(NO₃)₂ : 187.54 g/mole
  • NaCl: 58.45 g/mole

Then, by reaction stoichiometry, the following mass quantities of each compound participate in the reaction:

  • CuCl₂: 1 mole ×134.44 g/mole= 134.44 grams
  • NaNO₃: 2 moles ×85 g/mole= 170 grams
  • Cu(NO₃)₂ : 1 mole ×187.54 g/mole= 187.54 grams
  • NaCl: 2 moles ×58.45 g/mole= 116.9 grams

<h3>Mass of NaCl formed</h3>

The following rule of three can be applied: If by stoichiometry of the reaction 134.44 grams of CuCl₂ form 116.9 grams of NaCl, 2 grams of CuCl₂ form how much mass of NaCl?

mass of NaCl=\frac{2 grams of CuCl_{2}x116.9 grams of NaCl }{134.44grams of CuCl_{2}}

<u><em>mass of NaCl= 1.739 grams</em></u>

Finally, 1.729 grams of NaCl is formed.

On the galapagos islands, Darwin studied many creatures, including finches. Explain what he observed and how it relates to natur
Tatiana [17]
Darwin observed the beaks of the birds and how the different beaks helped the birds to eat different types of seeds.

This relates to natural selection because certain finches with say a smaller shorter beak would be able to eat only smaller seeds and fruits as to where a finch with a longer larger beak could eat larger bigger seeds and fruits. 

Hope this helped! Have a great day!

According to Newton's first law of physics, what will a bowling ball do as it rolls down the bowling alley?
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Because there is no friction, Newton's first law states that the ball should continue to roll. (continue at a constant speed)

Explanation:

Unless acted upon by an unbalanced force, Newton's first law of motion states that an object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and direction.
