What mass of CCl4 will be produced when 100g of carbon reacts with 100g of Cl2 . also ,find the mass excess of reagent ?

Dear Student,

C + 2Cl2   CCl41 mol i.e. 12 g of C reacts with 2 mol i.e. 2×70 g of Cl2So, 100 g of C will react with 2×7012×100=1166.6 g of Cl2But we have only 100 g of Cl2, so Cl2 is the limiting reagent. Now, 2×70 g of Cl2 reacts with 12 g of CSo, 100 g of Cl2 will react with  122×70×100= 8.57 g of CNow, 2×70 g of Cl2 gives 153.8 g of CCl4So, 100 g of Cl2 will give 153.82×70×100=109.85 g of CCl4

Ans :- CCl4 produced = 108.45 g ; Left over limiting reagent = 91.55 g
