Answer:
138 g of chlorine is required to produce 214 g of sodium chloride if we have 76 g of sodium.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given:
Grams of Sodium = 76 g
Grams of Sodium Chloride = 214 g
We need to find how many grams of chlorine required to produce 214 g of sodium chloride
The equation will be:
[tex]Na \ + \ Cl \ -> NaCl\\76\ g \ \ \ x \ g \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 214 g[/tex]
We can write: 76 (g) + x (g)=214 (g)
Solving and finding value of x
x =214-76
x=138 g
So, 138 g of chlorine is required to produce 214 g of sodium chloride if we have 76 g of sodium.
