Question 52

In an industrial process, pure silicon tetrachloride, SiCl4\text{SiCl}_4SiCl4​, is reacted with 600 moles of magnesium (an excess).

SiCl4+2Mg→Si+2MgCl2 \text{SiCl}_4 + 2\text{Mg} \rightarrow \text{Si} + 2\text{MgCl}_2 SiCl4​+2Mg→Si+2MgCl2​

Calculate the number of moles in 34 000 grams of silicon tetrachloride.

Relative atomic masses (ArA_rAr​): Cl=35.5\text{Cl} = 35.5Cl=35.5, Si=28.0\text{Si} = 28.0Si=28.0
