Question

The reaction of iron metal and chlorine gas to give iron(III) chloride is illustrated below.

(a) Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction.
(b) Beginning with 10.0 g of iron, what mass of Cl2, in grams, is required for complete reaction? What mass of FeCl3 can be produced?
(c) If only 18.5 g of FeCl3 is obtained from 10.0 g of iron and excess Cl2 , what is the percent yield?

(d) If 10.0 g each of iron and chlorine are combined, what is the theoretical yield of iron(III) chloride?
