Question

Consider the following series of reactions:
$C l_{2} + 2 N a O H ⟶ N a C l + N a C l O + H_{2} O 3 N a C l O ⟶ 2 N a C l + N a C l O_{3} 4 N a C l O_{3} ⟶ N a C l + 3 N a C l O_{4}$

How many mole of total $N a C l$ formed by using $1$ mole $C l_{2}$ and other reagents in excess?

Solution

The correct option is C $1.75 mole$
Given reactions are:
$C l_{2} + 2 N a O H ⟶ N a C l + N a C l O + H_{2} O 3 N a C l O ⟶ 2 N a C l + N a C l O_{3} 4 N a C l O_{3} ⟶ N a C l + 3 N a C l O_{4}$
$1$ mole of $C l_{2}$ reacts with $2$ moles of $N a O H$ to produce $1$ mole of $N a C l$ and $1$ mole of $N a C l O$ .
Again, $3$ moles of $N a C l O$ gives $2$ moles $N a C l$ and $1$ mole $N a C l O_{3}$ .
So $1$ mole of $N a C l O$ gives $\frac{2}{3}$ moles $N a C l$ and $\frac{1}{3}$ mole $N a C l O_{3}$ .
Again $4$ moles of $N a C l O_{3}$ gives $1$ mole $N a C l$ .
So $\frac{1}{3}$ moles of $N a C l O_{3}$ gives $\frac{1}{12}$ mole $N a C l$ .
So total $N a C l$ produced
$= 1 + \frac{2}{3} + \frac{1}{12} = \frac{12 + 8 + 1}{12} = \frac{21}{3} = 1.75$
