For the reaction 2Cl2 + 4NaOH → 3NaCl + NaClO2 + 2H2O,
how many grams of NaCl can be produced from 4.45g of Cl2 and excess NaOH?
:( please help..i need to turn this in later
i will mark you brainlest

Mass = 5.56 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Cl₂ = 4.45 g

Mass of NaCl produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2Cl₂ + 4NaOH     →   3NaCl + NaClO₂ + 2H₂O

Number of moles of Cl₂:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 4.45 g/ 71 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.063 mol

Now we will compare the moles of Cl₂ with NaCl.

                  Cl₂         :         NaCl

                    2          :          3

                 0.063      :        3/2×0.063 =0.095 mol

Mass of NaCl:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.095 mol × 58.5 g/mol

Mass = 5.56 g
