0.3268 moles of PC15 can be produced from 58.0 g of Cl₂ (and excess
P4).
The mole, symbol mol, exists as the SI base unit of the amount of substance. The quantity amount of substance exists as a measurement of how many elementary entities of a provided substance stand in an object or sample.
The balanced chemical equation is
[tex]P_{4} + 10Cl_{2} = 4PCl_{5}[/tex]
The mass of clorine is m([tex]Cl_{2}[/tex]) = 58.0 g
The amount of clorine is n([tex]Cl_{2}[/tex]) = m([tex]Cl_{2}[/tex])/M([tex]Cl_{2}[/tex]) = 58/70.906 = 0.817 mol
The stoichiometric reaction,shows that
10 moles of [tex]Cl_{2}[/tex] yield 4 moles of [tex]PCl_{5}[/tex];
0.817 of [tex]Cl_{2}[/tex] yield x moles of [tex]PCl_{5}[/tex]
n([tex]PCl_{5}[/tex]) = 4*0.817/10 = 0.3268 mole
0.3268 moles of PC15 can be produced from 58.0 g of Cl₂ (and excess
P4).
