Iron chloride is produced by heating iron in chlorine gas. The equation for the reaction is: 2 Fe + 3 Cl2 → 2 FeCl3 Calculate the volume of chlorine needed to react with 14 g of iron. You should calculate: • the number of moles of iron used • the number of moles of chlorine that react with 14 g of iron • the volume of chlorine needed. Relative atomic mass (Ar): Fe = 56 The volume of 1 mole of gas = 24 dm3 – 6136

Q1.

 Iron chloride is produced by heating iron in chlorine gas.

The equation for the reaction is:

2 Fe + 3 Cl2 → 2 FeCl3

Calculate the volume of chlorine needed to react with 14 g of iron.

You should calculate:

• the number of moles of iron used

• the number of moles of chlorine that react with 14 g of iron

• the volume of chlorine needed.

Relative atomic mass (Ar): Fe = 56

The volume of 1 mole of gas = 24 dm3
