For the following reaction, 15.4 grams of chlorine gas are allowed to react with 49.6 grams of sodium iodide. chlorine (g) sodium iodide (s) sodium chloride (s) iodine (s) What is the maximum amount of sodium chloride that can be formed

19.3 g of NaCl can be produced

Explanation:

We state the reaction:

Cl₂ (g) + 2NaI (s) →  2NaCl (s) + I₂ (s)

We need to determine limiting reagent:

15.4 g . 1mol /70.9g = 0.217 moles of chlorine

49.6 g . 1mol / 149.89g = 0.331 moles of NaI

Ratio is 1:2. 1 mol of chlorine reacts to 2 moles of NaI

0.217 moles may react to (0.217 . 2)/1 = 0.434 moles of NaI

It is ok to say the NaI is the limting reactant because we need 0.434 moles of it and we only have 0.331.

Ratio is 2:2.

0.331 moles of NaI can produce 0.331 moles of NaCl

We convert mass to moles: 0.331 mol . 58.45g /mol = 19.3 g

- calcium has greater affinity to bond with electron receptors than hydrogen does and hence, it has the ability to replace hydrogen in most of its compounds.

- lithium has 2 valence electrons in the product because it can make only 1 bond with hydrogen. beryllium has 4 valence electrons in the product because it can only make 2 bonds. it has fewer electrons than neon and can react with electron donors. each hydrogen has 2 valence electrons, the same as helium.

- the covalent bond formed between carbon and hydrogen is polar because carbon is more electronegative than hydrogen and it attracts the bonded electron pair closer to itself, thus giving hydrogen a partial positive charge.

- a hydrogen bond is a relatively weak bond that hydrogen atoms make with the electronegative atoms nitrogen, oxygen or fluorine.

so the best choice is a.) 2 calcium (ca) atoms

c.
