Answer in units of mol.
mol,

Answer 1

Answer:

4) 1.5 mol

Explanation:

Well, the equation is already balanced and the mole to mole ratio of reactants and products are all 1. So if the limiting reactant is HCl and you have 1.5 mol, you do the mole to mole ratio with NaCl and since it is 1 to 1, there'd be 1.5 mol of NaCl.
