How many grams of iron(III) chloride will form when 5.5 moles of iron react with chlorine gas in this synthesis reaction? 2Fe + 3Cl2 --> 2FeCl3
2 moles of Fe result in 2 moles of FeCl3
so 5.5 moles of Fe will result in 5.5 moles of FeCl3
5.5 * ( mol wt of Fe + 3*mol wt of Cl ) gms ( you'll need periodic table of elements)
