If 5.00g of iron metal is reacted with 0.950g of Cl2 gas, how many grams of ferric chloride (FeCl3) will form?

1.45g of FeCl3

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is given as;

2Fe + 3Cl2 --> 2FeCl3

2 mol of Fe reracts with 3 mol of Cl2 to form 2 mol of FeCl3

Upon converting to mass using;

Mass = Number of moles * Molar mass

( 2 * 55.85 = 111.7g ) of Fe reacts with ( 3 * 71 = 213g ) of Cl2 to form ( 2 * 162.2 = 324.4g) of FeCl3

Cl2 is the limiting reactant as it determines how much of FeCl3 is formed

213g of Cl2 = 324.4g of FeCl3

0.950g of Cl2 = x

x = (0.950 * 324.4 ) / 213

x = 1.45g of FeCl3

vanderwaal's forces of attraction are the electrostatic intermolecular forces that exist in a molecule due to the temporary or permanent dipoles that are developed in a molecule. in , the major intermolecular forces are dipole-dipole interactions as the molecule is polar (bent structure). so the vanderwaal's forces of interaction in between molecules are the permanent dipole-dipole interactions that develop due to the dipole that exists in between the polar h - s bond. the positively charged hydrogen atom is attracted towards the negative end of the dipole that is sulfur of the adjacent molecule. therefore, these forces of attraction are relatively stronger than that of london dispersion forces that exist in non polar molecules.
