0.5 moles of are produced in the reaction

Explanation:

The number of moles is defined as the ratio of the mass of a substance to its molar mass.

The equation used is:

......(1)

Given mass of = 113.6 g

Molar mass of = 79.5 g/mol

Plugging values in equation 1:

For the given chemical reaction:

By the stoichiometry of the reaction:

If 3 moles of produces 1 mole of

So, 1.43 moles of will produce = of

Hence, 0.5 moles of are produced in the reaction
