For the reaction Ca(s)+Cl2(g)→CaCl2(s) calculate how many grams of the product form when 14.4 g of Ca completely reacts. Assume that there is more than enough of the other reactant.

Answer:

[tex]m_{CaCl_2}=39.96gCaCl_2[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the undergoing reaction, we can compute the grams of the formed calcium chloride by noticing the 1:1 molar ratio between calcium and it (stoichiometric coefficients) and using their molar mass of 40 g/mol and 111 g/mol by using the following stoichiometric process:

[tex]m_{CaCl_2}=14.4gCa*\frac{1molCa}{40gCa} *\frac{1molCaCl_2}{1molCa} *\frac{111gCaCl_2}{1molCaCl_2}\\ \\m_{CaCl_2}=39.96gCaCl_2[/tex]

Clearly, chlorine is not used since it is said there is enough for the reaction to go to completion.

Best regards.
