Answer: 32.94 g
Explanation: It's stoichiometry problem so balanced equation is required. The balanced equation is given below:
[tex]Kr+2Cl_2\rightarrow KrCl_4[/tex]
From the balanced equation, krypton and chlorine react in 1:2 mol ratio. We will calculate the moles of each reactant gas using ideal gas law equation(PV = nRT) and then using mol ratio the limiting reactant is figured out that helps to calculate the amount of the product formed.
for Krypton, P = 0.500 atm and for chlorine, P = 1.50 atm
V = 15.0 L
T = 350.8 + 273 = 623.8 K
For krypton, [tex]n=\frac{0.500*15.0}{0.0821*623.8}[/tex]
n = 0.146 moles
for chlorine, [tex]n=\frac{1.50*15.0}{0.0821*623.8}[/tex]
n = 0.439
From the mole ratio, 1 mol of krypton reacts with 2 moles of chlorine. So 0.146 moles of krypton will react with 2 x 0.146 = 0.292 moles of chlorine.
Since 0.439 moles of chlorine are available, it is present in excess and hence the limiting reactant is krypton.
So, the amount of product formed is calculated from moles of krypton.
Molar mass of krypton tetrachloride is 225.61 gram per mol.
There is 1:1 mol ratio between krypton and krypton tetrachloride.
[tex]0.146molKr(\frac{1molKrCl_4}{molKr})(\frac{225.61gKrCl_4}{1molKrCl_4})[/tex]
= 32.94 g of [tex]KrCl_4[/tex]
So, 32.94 g of the product will form.
