Question

Freon-12 (CF2Cl2), widely used as a refrigerant and aerosol propellant, is a dangerous air
pollutant. In the troposphere, it traps heat 25 times as effectively as CO2, and in the
stratosphere, it participates in the breakdown of ozone. Freon-12 is prepared industrially by
reaction of gaseous carbon tetrachloride with hydrogen fluoride. Hydrogen chloride gas
also forms. How many grams of carbon tetrachloride are required for the production of
16.0 dm3 of Freon-12 at 27°C and 1.20 atm?
