When 91.96g of Na reacts with 32.o g of O2 how many grams of NaO2 are produced

123.96 g Na₂O

Explanation:

4 Na  +  O₂  ⇒  2 Na₂O

You first need to find the limiting reagent.  Convert the reactants to moles and see which produces the least amount of product using the mole ratios in the chemical equation.

(91.96 g Na)/(22.99 g/mol Na) = 4 mol Na

(4 mol Na) × (2 mol Na₂O/4 mol Na) = 2 mol Na₂O

(32.0 g O₂)/(32.0 g/mol) = 1 mol O₂

(1 mol O₂) × (2 mol Na₂O/1 mol O₂) = 2 mol Na₂O

Since they both produce the same amount of product, you don't need to pick a limiting reagent.  Now, convert moles of Na₂O to grams.

(2 mol Na₂O) × (61.98 g/mol Na₂O) = 123.96 g Na₂O

answer: enthalpy

explanation:

for a exothermic reaction, the energy is released i.e. the energy of the products is lower than the energy of the reactants.

= enthaply

= energy of products

= energy of reactants

as , thus comes out to be negative. negative value of enthalpy shows that the reaction is exothermic.
