In the direct reaction of silicon with Cl2, the yield of SiCl4 is 50.9%. How many grams of silicon must be reacted with excess chlorine in order to obtain 17 g of SiCl4?
Added by Emily R.
Step 1
0855 g/mol (Si) + 4(35.453 g/mol) (Cl) Molar mass of SiCl4 = 28.0855 g/mol + 141.812 g/mol Molar mass of SiCl4 = 169.8975 g/mol Show more…

Silicon tetrachloride can be prepared by heating silicon and chlorine. Use the balanced equation Si(s) + 2 Cl2(g)= SiCl4(l) to find how many grams of SiCl4 are made when 4.24 grams of Cl2 gas react. show work please

Many metals react with halogens to give metal halides. For example, iron reacts with chlorine to give iron(II) chloride, $\mathrm{FeCl}_{2^{-}}$ $$ \mathrm{Fe}(\mathrm{s})+\mathrm{Cl}_{2}(\mathrm{~g}) \longrightarrow \mathrm{FeCl}_{2}(\mathrm{~s}) $$ Beginning with $10.0 \mathrm{~g}$ iron, what mass of $\mathrm{Cl}_{2}$, in grams, is required for complete reaction? What quantity of $\mathrm{FeCl}_{2}$, in moles and in grams is expected?
