A chemist reacted 57.50 grams of sodium metal with an excess amount of chlorine gas. The chemical reaction that occurred is shown. Na + Cl2 → NaCl

If the percentage yield of the reaction is 86%, what is the actual yield? Show your work, including the use of stoichiometric calculations and conversion factors.

The actual yield : 52.596 g

hope this helps:)

answer:

the answer is 6 valence electrons.

explanation:

valence is the # of electrons on the outer most shell of an atom.

oxygen has 6.

although, the valency of oxygen is 2, because it only needs to make 2 covalent bonds, or gain 2 electrons, to achieve the stable octet configuration of a noble gas.

that's it!

if you need further assistance, let me know: )
