A chemist reacted 11.50 grams of sodium metal with an excess amount of chlorine gas. The chemical reaction that occurred is shown. Na + Cl2 → NaCl

If the percentage yield of the reaction is 85%, what is the actual yield? Show your work including, the use of stoichiometric calculations and conversion factors.

24.86 g of sodium chloride

Explanation:

it is to be noted that an alpha particle is an helium nucleus. so it contains 2 protons 2 neutrons and has a mass number of 4. when alpha decay particles are ejected from the nucleus it gets transformed into an atom which has atomic number less than 2 and a mass number less than 4.

an equation that could represent alpha decay is radium 226 decay of alpha particle forms radon 222.

explanation: it gains negative electrons, therefore becoming negatively charged. as charge cannot be created, nor destroyed, only transferred, this leaves the wool positive. now that they have opposite charges, the two items attract.
