Answer: 12.5 moles NaNO3

Explanation: solution attached.

First balance predict the products

Na+ Mg( NO3)2 => Mg + NaNO3

Next balance the chemical equation

2 Na + Mg(NO3)2 => Mg + 2 NaNO3

Solve for the moles of Na

175 g Na x 1 mole Na/ 14 g Na

Next compare the mole ratios of Na and NaNO3 based from the balanced equation.

2 moles Na : 2 moles NaNO3

If 175g of Sodium reacts with excess Magnesium Nitrate then how many miles of Sodium-example-1
