How many grams of Na₂CO₃ are required to produce 8.4 g of NaCl with excess HCl? (Molar masses: Na₂CO₃ = 106 g/mol, NaCl

Reaction: Na₂CO₃ + 2 HCl → 2 NaCl + CO₂ + H₂O. Moles of NaCl = 8.4/58.5 ≈ 0.1436 mol. 2 mol NaCl from 1 mol Na₂CO₃; 0.1436 mol from 0.0718 mol. Mass = 0.0718 × 106 ≈ 7.61 g.

How many grams of NaCl are produced when 10.6 g of Na₂CO₃ reacts with excess HCl? (Molar masses: Na₂CO₃ = 106 g/mol, NaC

Reaction: Na₂CO₃ + 2 HCl → 2 NaCl + CO₂ + H₂O. Moles of Na₂CO₃ = 10.6/106 = 0.1 mol. 1 mol Na₂CO₃ produces 2 mol NaCl; 0.1 mol produces 0.2 mol. Mass = 0.2 × 58.5 = 11.7 g.
