As lead chemist for a pharmaceutical manufacturing company, you need to inform the purchasing office of a supply order for the next batch of cisplatin, PtCl2(NH3)2. If you intend to make a 500kg batch, how many kg chlorine gas do you need to order?

mass of chlorine gas required is 118 kg.

Explanation:

Total mass of the drug (Cisplatin) required = 500 kg

For the drug PtCl2(NH3)2, we first find the molar mass of the compound.

The molar mass of the drug is the total of all the molar mass of the elements in the drug

molar mass of Pt (platinum) in the drug = 195.078 g/mol

molar mass of chlorine (Cl) in the drug = 2 x (35.453 g/mol) = 70.908 g/mol

molar mass of ammonia (NH3) in the drug = 2 x (17.031 g/mol) = 34.062 g/mol

Total molar mass of the drug = 195.078 g/mol + 70.908 g/mol + 34.062 g/mol = 300.048 g/mol

fractional composition of chlorine in the drug = 70.908/300.048 = 0.236

mass of chlorine required for 500 kg of the drug = 0.236 x 500 = 118 kg

your parents i think this could be it

2h2o2--> 2h2o + o2

this reaction is of the spontaneous decomposition of hydrogen peroxide down into water and oxygen.

add 2 molecules of hydrogen peroxide and 2 molecules of water. since oxygen is naturally diatomic, the total number of atoms of each element is now the same on both sides of the equation so it is balanced.

this may not be entirely correct but let me know.
