  • Calculating Moles of BaCl2 Required for Reaction with AgNO3
    Here's how to solve this problem:

    1. Balanced Chemical Equation:

    The balanced chemical equation you provided is correct:

    2AgNO₃ + BaCl₂ → 2AgCl + Ba(NO₃)₂

    2. Mole Ratio:

    The balanced equation tells us that 2 moles of AgNO₃ react with 1 mole of BaCl₂.

    3. Calculate Moles of BaCl₂:

    * You have 7.5 moles of AgNO₃.

    * Use the mole ratio: (1 mole BaCl₂ / 2 moles AgNO₃)

    * Multiply this ratio by the moles of AgNO₃: (1 mole BaCl₂ / 2 moles AgNO₃) * 7.5 moles AgNO₃ = 3.75 moles BaCl₂

    Therefore, you need 3.75 moles of BaCl₂ to react completely with 7.5 moles of AgNO₃.
