Ammonium perchlorate NH4ClO4 is the solid rocket fuel used by the U. S. Space Shuttle. It reacts with itself to produce nitrogen gas N2, chlorine gas Cl2, oxygen gas O2, water H2O, and a great deal of energy. What mass of chlorine gas is produced by the reaction of 3.3g of ammonium perchlorate? Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

0.99 grams of chlorine gas is produced by the reaction of 3.3g of ammonium perchlorate

Explanation:

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

The decomposition of ammonium perchlorate is :

According to stoichiometry :

2 moles of produce =  1 mole of

Thus 0.028 moles of produce=  of  

Mass of

Thus 0.99 grams of chlorine gas is produced by the reaction of 3.3g of ammonium perchlorate

the number of protons in the nucleus of a given element. has slight luster and conducts electricity at high temperatures like metal.but like a nonmetal,boron is brittle and does not conduct electricity well at low temperatures. in graphite, carbon is a soft,brittle solid.it is reflective,ductile,or malleable.
