After our solar system began to form, dust and gas combined into small bodies that formed the planets. what are these small bodies called?

Planetesimal

Explanation:

According to Nebular Theory, the Solar system was formed from the Solar Nebula about 4.6 billion years ago. Nebula is a molecular cloud composed of dust and gases. Majority of the mass accreted to form a core which gradually formed the Sun. The remaining mass of the disk surrounding the core accreted into small bodies known as Planetesimal which formed the planets.

c

Explanation:

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
