Accepted Answer
| Question: | 250ml Chlorine (Cl) + 25ml Sodium (Na) |
| Solution: | This reaction cannot be performed as described. Sodium metal reacts violently with water, and chlorine gas is dissolved in water to create chlorine water, which is also reactive. |
| Chemical Equation: | N/A |
| Explanation: | This question presents a problem because you're mixing elemental sodium (Na) which reacts explosively with water 💥, and chlorine (Cl₂), a gas which is typically dissolved in water for reactions. You can't directly titrate solid sodium metal against chlorine water in a simple titration. A proper titration requires a solution of known concentration (titrant) to be added to a solution of unknown concentration (analyte) until the reaction is complete, typically signaled by an indicator. This reaction would produce sodium chloride (NaCl), but not safely under these conditions. 🧂 + 💨 = 💥 (Not a good combination!) |
