Answer:
Moles of silver iodide produced = 1.4 mol
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of calcium iodide = 205 g
Moles of silver iodide produced = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
CaI₂ + 2AgNO₃ → 2AgI + Ca(NO₃)₂
Number of moles calcium iodide:
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 205 g/ 293.887 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.7 mol
Now we will compare the moles of calcium iodide with silver iodide.
CaI₂ : AgI
1 : 2
0.7 : 2×0.7 = 1.4
Thus 1.4 moles of silver iodide will be formed from 205 g of calcium iodide.
