Consider the reaction of solid P, and chlorine gas to form gaseous phosphorus trichloride.
a) Write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction.
b) The balanced chemical equation is P,(s) + 6 CI,(g) → 4 PCI,(g). What is the mass in grams of phosphorus trichloride that can be formed from 222.3 grams of P, based on the balanced chemical equation?
c) The balanced chemical equation is P,(s) + 6 CI,(g) → 4 PCI,(g). What is the mass in grams of phosphorus trichloride that can be formed from 304.8 grams of chlorine gas based on the balanced chemical equation? 28
d) Given that 222.3 grams of P, react to make 985.6 g of PCI, and 304.8 g of CI, react to make 393.5 g of PCI, which reactant is limiting?
e) The theoretical yield for the reaction is 393.5 g of PCI,. If only 218.7 g of phosphorus trichloride were collected, what is the percent yield of the reaction?
