Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

To determine limiting reactant divide mole quantities of reactants by the respective coefficient in the balanced equation. The smaller value is the limiting reactant.

P₄ + 5O₂ => 2P₂O₅

12/1 = 12 15/5 = 3

O₂ is the limiting reactant. P₄ will be in excess when rxn stops.

Explanation:

Chlorine is a member of the halogen family known as a toxic yellowish green gas. Inhalation of chlorine for a prolonged period of time leads to pulmonary edema. If a person comes in contact with compressed liquid chlorine the person may experience frostbite of the skin and eyes.

However chlorine is very useful in water disinfection and is preferred in water treatment because it provides residual disinfection of the treated water.

Chlorine gas may be dissolved in NaOH to form oxochlorate I which is used as a bleach in cleaning.
