How many moles of ag can be produced if 350. g of cu are reacted with excess agno3 according to the equation cu(s) + 2agno3(aq) ® 2ag(s) + cu(no3)2(aq)?

The moles of Ag produced will be 11.02 moles.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

For copper:

Given mass of copper = 350 g

Molar mass of copper = 63.5 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

For the given chemical equation:

Silver nitrate is present in excess, so it is considered as an excess reagent and copper is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of products.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of copper produces 2 moles of silver.

So, 5.51 moles of copper will produce = of silver.

Thus, the moles of Ag produced will be 11.02 moles.

nacl or sodium chloride is an ionic compound. this is because an ionic compound pertains to a compound that consists of positively and negatively charged ions. in this case, na (sodium) has a tendency to lose one electron when it reacts with with other atoms, so the resulting sodium ion contains 11 protons and 10 electrons, thus making it positively charged (na+), when chlorine reacts, it usually gains one electron to form an ion called chloride, thus making it negatively charged ( since the ions are oppositely charged, they attract.
