how many moles of PbCl2 are produced if 14 moles of AlCl3 are consumed

Answer 1

In order for AlCl₃ to somehow be converted to PbCl₂, there must be a chemical reaction in which AlCl₃ and some lead salt, for example PbCl₂ react. There could be other possible reactions, but since the original question did not state a specific reaction, nor did it state specific conditions, the following will be assumed:

3Pb(NO₃)₂(aq) + 2AlCl₃(aq( ==> 3PbCl₂(s) + 2Al(NO₃)₃(aq) ... balanced equation

Using dimensional analysis and the mole ratios from the balanced equation, we can calculate moles of PbCl₂ formed from 14 moles of AlCl₃...

14 moles AlCl₃ x 3 moles PbCl₂/2 moles AlCl₃ = 21 moles of PbCl₂ formed
