Our teacher drinks a glass of water in the front of the classroom and claims, “this water could have been frozen in a glacier on Greenland thousands of years ago.” Construct a response to support this claim that water could have moved from a glacier on Greenland to a local Baltimore County Reservoir and into your school’s water fountain.

alfred von schlieffen, german army chief of staff, was given instructions to devise a strategy that would be able to counter a joint attack. in december, 1905, he began circulating what later became known as the schlieffen plan. schlieffen argued that if war took place it was vital that france was speedily defeated.

given:

mass of na = 115 g

excess cl2

to determine:

mass of nacl produced

explanation:

given reaction is-

2na(s) + cl2(g) → 2nacl(s)

since cl2 is in excess, na will be the limiting reagent

as per the reaction stoichiometry na: nacl = 1: 1

i.e. moles of na reacted = moles of nacl formed

now, # moles of na = mass of na/atomic mass

                                  = 115 g/23 g.mol-1 = 5 moles

therefore, moles of nacl = 5

molar mass of nacl = 58 g/mol

mass of nacl = 5 moles * 58 g.mol-1 = 290 g

ans: amount of nacl produced = 290 g

yes the answer is total mass in unchanged   : )
