Question

You are given 600 grams of sodium chloride (NaCl), but you are planning to purify the substance and extract just the sodium. How many moles of Na can you theoretically extract from 600 grams of NaCl? Explain your reasoning.

Answer 1

Answer:

236.02 grams of Na is produced by 600g of NaCl.

Explanation:

NaCl --> Na+Cl-

to find the number of moles NaCl has, divide the grams over the molar mass which is 600/58.44

number of moles of nacl= 10.2 moles

then turn moles back to grams which is moles x molar mass

10.2 moles x 22.9 mass

= 236.02 grams

Answer 2

The study of chemicals and bonds is called chemistry.

The correct answer is 236.02

The reaction is as follows:-

$NaCl --> Na^+ +Cl^-$

We have to find the number of moles of NaCl:-

=$\frac{600}{58.44}$

The number of moles of NaCl is 10.2 moles.

We have to find the mass by multiplying the moles by their mass. The formula is as follows:-$moles * molar\ mass$

$10.2 * 22.9$ = 236.02 grams.

Hence, the correct answer is 236.02grams.
