Given the balanced equation representing a reaction: 2NaCl -> 2Na + Cl2 A 1170. gram sample of NaCl completely reacts, producing 460. grams of Na. What is the total mass of Cl2 produced?
Given the stoichiometric equation above and the amount of NaCl needed to produce the products, we can determine the amount of products produced. A 1170 gram NaCl using stoich produces 460 grams Na. This means the reaction makes a 100% conversion after. So, the amount of Cl2 produced from stoich is 709.61 grams.
