Problem

Given the following reaction:
Zn+CuClX2→ZnClX2+Cu\ce{Zn + CuCl2 -> ZnCl2 + Cu}
How many moles of ZnClX2\ce{ZnCl2} will be produced from 23, point, 0, start text, space, g, end text of Z, n, assuming CuClX2\ce{CuCl2} is available in excess?
  • Your answer should be
  • an integer, like 6
  • an exact decimal, like 0, point, 75
  • a simplified proper fraction, like 3, slash, 5
  • a simplified improper fraction, like 7, slash, 4
  • a mixed number, like 1, space, 3, slash, 4
moles (round to three significant figures)
