Answer:
44.5 g of Na₂O
Explanation:
The reaction is this one:
2NaCl + MgO → Na₂O + MgCl₂
Moles of NaCl = Mass / Molar mass
84 g / 58.45 g/m = 1.43 moles
Ratio is 2:1, so if we produce 1 mol of Na₂O, from 2 moles of NaCl; If we have 1.43 moles, we 'll produce the half of moles
1.43 / 2 = 0.72 moles
Molar mass Na₂O = 62 g/m
Mol . molar mass = 0.72 m . 62 g/m = 44.5 g
Answer:
There will be 44.5 grams of sodium oxide (Na2O) produced
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
Mass of Sodium chloride (NaCl) = 84.00 grams
Magnesium oxide = in excess
Molar mass of NaCl = 58.44 g/mol
Molar mass of sod)ium oxide (Na2O = 61.98 g/mol
Step 2: The balanced equation
2NaCl + MgO → Na2O + MgCl2
Step 3: Calculate moles of NaCl
Moles NaCl = Mass / Molar mass
Moles NaCl = 84.00 grams / 58.44 g/mol
Moles NaCl = 1.437 moles
Step 4: Calculate moles of Na2O
The limiting reactant is NaCl.
For 2 moles NaCl consumed, we need 1 mol MgO to produce 1 mol Na2O and 1 mol of MgCl2
For 1.437 moles of NaCl we'll have 1.437/2 = 0.7185 moles of Na2O
Step 5: Calculate mass of Na2O
Mass Na2O = Moles Na2O * Molar mass Na2O
Mass Na2O = 0.7185 moles * 61.98 g/mol
Mass Na2O = 44.53 grams of Na2O
There will be 44.5 grams of sodium oxide (Na2O) produced
