Question

25.4 g of iodine and 14.2g of chlorine are made to react completely to yield a mixture of ICl and ICl3. Calculate the number of moles of ICl and ICl3 formed.

• A. 0.1 mole, 0.1 mole
• B. 0.1 mole, 0.2 mole
• C. 0.5 mole, 0.5 mole
• D. 0.2 mole, 0.2 mole

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

0.1 mole, 0.1 mole

Answer 2

(1)

I2 + 2CI2 $\longrightarrow$ ICI + ICI3

Given mass 25.4 gram 14.2 gram 0 0

initial mole 0.1 mole 0.2 mole 0 0

final mole 0 0 0.1 0.1
