Question

Chlorine gas can be produced by reacting sulphuric acid with a mixutre of `MnO_(2)` and NaCl. The reacting follows the equations:
`2NaCl+MnO_(2)+3H_(2)SO_(4)to2NaHSO_(4)+MnSO_(4)+Cl_(2)+2H_(2)O`
What volume of chlorine can be produced from 1g of sodium chloride under standard conditions of temperature and pressure?

Answer 1

Correct Answer - d
`therefore "2 moles NaCl(117 g")-=1"mole of "Cl_(2)(22.4"at STP")`
`therefore "1 g NaCl will give"=(22.4)/(117)"L "Cl_(2)" at STP"`
=0.191 L `Cl_(2)` at STP
