Answer:
Mass of arsenic chloride produced is 0.363 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of arsenic chloride produced = ?
Mass of arsenic react = 0.150 g
Mass of chlorine = excess
Solution:
Chemical equation:
2As + 3Cl₂ → 2AsCl₃
First of all we will calculate the number of moles of arsenic.
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 0.150 g/ 75 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.002 mol
Now we will compare the moles of arsenic with arsenic chloride.
As : AsCl₃
2 : 2
0.002 : 0.002
Mass of arsenic chloride produced:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 0.002 × 181.28 g/mol
Mass = 0.363 g
