Question
Elemental phosphorus reacts with chlorine gas according to the equation
P4(s)+6Cl2(g)→4PCl3(l)
A reaction mixture initially contains 45.53 g P4 and 130.9 g Cl2.
Once the reaction has reached completion, what mass (in g) of the excess reactant is left?
Express the mass in grams to three significant figures.

Your answer should be in gramsarrow_forwardOne way the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) tests for chloride contaminants in water is by titrating a sample of silver nitrate solution. Any chloride anions in solution will combine with the silver cations to produce bright white silver chloride precipitate. Suppose an EPA chemist tests a 200. mL sample of groundwater known to be contaminated with cadmium chloride, which would react with silver nitrate solution like this: CdCl₂(aq) + 2 AgNO3(aq) → 2 AgCl(s) + Cd(NO3)₂(aq) The chemist adds 75.0 mM silver nitrate solution to the sample until silver chloride stops forming. He then washes, dries, and weighs the precipitate. He finds he has collected 7.0 mg of silver chloride. Calculate the concentration of cadmium chloride contaminant in the original groundwater sample. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. mg Larrow_forward
