How to Calculate Moles of Silver Chloride Produced
Question:
How many moles of silver chloride are produced from 15.0 mol of silver nitrate?
Answer:
15 moles of silver chloride will be produced.
Explanation:
We are given:
Moles of silver nitrate = 15 moles
For the given chemical reaction:
AgNO3 + NaCl = NaNO3 + AgCl
By stoichiometry of the reaction:
1 mole of silver nitrate produces 1 mole of silver chloride.
So, 15 moles of silver nitrate will produce = 15 moles of silver chloride.
Hence, 15 moles of silver chloride will be produced.
