Question

If 13.3 mol of Co(NO3)2 are reacted how many moles of NaNO3 are produced?

Answer 1

Answer: -

If 13.3 mole of Co(NO₃)₂ are reacted, 26.6 mole of NaNO₃ are produced.

Explanation: -

The balanced chemical equation for the production of NaNO₃ from Co(NO₃)₂ is

Co(NO₃)₂ + Na₂SO₄ → 2 NaNO₃ + CoSO₄

From the balanced equation we see that

1 mole of Co(NO₃)₂ gives 2 moles of NaNO₃

13.3 mole of Co(NO₃)₂ gives
`(2mole NaNO3 x 13.3 mole Co(NO3)2)/(1moe Co(NO3)2)`moles of NaNO₃

= 26.6 mole of NaNO₃
