PF_(3) reacts with XeF_(4) to give PF_(5) underset((g))(2PF_(3))+unde

1.	PF_(3) reacts with XeF_(4) to give PF_(5) underset((g))(2PF_(3))+underset((s))(XeF_(4))rarrunderset((g))(2PF_(5))+underset((g))(Xe) If 100.0gm of PF_(3) and 50.0 gm XeF_(4) react, then which of the following statement is true?
Answer» `XeF_(4)` is the limiting reagent `PF_(3)` is the limiting reagent 1.127 mol of `PF_(5)` are produced 0.382 mol of `PF_(5)` are produced SOLUTION :`2PF_(3)+XeF_(4)rarr2PF_(5)+Xe` No. of MOLES of `PF_(3)=(100)/(88)=1.13` No. of moles of `XeF_(4)=(50)/(207)=0.24` 1 mol `XeF_(4)` produce 2 mol `PF_(5)` `therefore 0.24` mol `XeF_(4)` produce `0.24xx2` = 0.48 mol PF
