Sodium chloride decomposes into the elements sodium and chlorine by means of electrical energy. How many grams of chlorine gas can be obtained from 2.50 moles of NaCl?
Added by Lindsey H.
Step 1
50 moles of NaCl. Given that 2 moles of NaCl form 1 mole of chlorine gas, we can use the ratio: 1 mole Cl₂ = 2 moles NaCl Therefore, 2.50 moles NaCl * (1 mole Cl₂ / 2 moles NaCl) = 1.25 moles Cl₂ Show more…
