How many moles of sodium chloride (salt) can be made from 6 moles of chlorine?
6 mols Cl2 x (2 mols NaCl/1 mol Cl2) = 6 x 2/1 = ?
6*2=12/1= 12?
am i right?
yes
thank you(:
you think you could help me with another?
How many moles of chlorine are needed to react with 2.5 moles of sodium?
To determine the number of moles of sodium chloride that can be made from chlorine, we need to determine the balanced chemical equation between chlorine and sodium chloride.
The balanced chemical equation for the formation of sodium chloride from chlorine gas is:
Cl2 + 2Na → 2NaCl
From the equation, we can see that 1 molecule of chlorine (Cl2) reacts with 2 molecules of sodium (Na) to form 2 molecules of sodium chloride (NaCl).
Therefore, the molar ratio between chlorine and sodium chloride is 1:2.
Since we're given 6 moles of chlorine, we can use the molar ratio to determine the number of moles of sodium chloride:
Number of moles of sodium chloride = 6 moles of chlorine × (2 moles of sodium chloride / 1 mole of chlorine)
= 6 × 2 = 12 moles of sodium chloride.
So, 6 moles of chlorine can produce 12 moles of sodium chloride.
