For the following reaction, 6.12 grams of chlorine gas are mixed with excess iron. The reaction yields 8.25 grams of iron(III) chloride. 2 Fe (s) + 3 Cl2 (g) 2 FeCl3 (s) (1) What is the theoretical yield of iron(III) chloride ? grams (2) What is the percent yield for this reaction ? % For the following reaction, 6.12 grams of chlorine gas are mixed with excess iron.

same steps as before give it a shot

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

2 Fe (s) + 3 Cl2 (g)= 2 FeCl3 (s

OpenStudy (anonymous):

express in mole fractions..

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

2 MOLES

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

I HAVE NEVER DONE THIS BEFOR

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

i HAVE DIFFICULT COMPREHENDING THIS STUFF

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its ok.. thats why we go to school.

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

HOW DO WE START THIS

OpenStudy (anonymous):

we are concerned only with Cl and FeCl3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so, how many moles of Cl react to give how many moles of FeCl3?

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

1 MOLE

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no.. 3 moles of Cl2 react to give 2moles of FeCl3 (look at the equation)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

right?

OpenStudy (toxicsugar22):

OKAY

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so, 3*(gmw of Cl2) -> 2*(gmw of FeCl3)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so, amount of FeCl3 = 3*6.12/2 theoretically

OpenStudy (anonymous):

=9.18g
