Assume that 3.00 grams of HgO was used in this reaction. To determine the number of moles of oxygen gas formed, you need to know the number of moles of HgO reactant was used. What quantity in moles of HgO were used

answer: -

reaction:

na + cl ⇌ nacl

balanced chemical equation:

na + 2cl ⇌ nacl2

sodium + clorine goes to form sodium chloride (table salt).

the product is nacl2.

and the reactants are na and cl.

(note: if you don’t know what ⇌ means, read below: -

⇌(double head arrow) means reversible reaction).
