chemistry hw help-- involves moles?

Question

On a small scale, calcium can be isolated through the retion of calcium chloride with sodium metal
CaCl2 + 2Na --> Ca + 2NaCl
Question:
how many moles of NaClare produced by the reaction of 14.0 mol Na?

Answer 1

You have been given a balanced equation. Note that the coefficient of NaCl is the same as the coefficient of Na. Thus, the number of moles of each in the reaction will match. So if your react 14.0 mol of Na, you will produce 14.0 mol of NaCl.
