A chemical plant uses electrical energy to decompose aqueoussolutions of NaCl to give Cl2, H2, and NaOH:2NaCl(aq)+2H2O(l)→2NaOH(aq)+H2(g)+Cl2(g)
A.If the plant produces 1.5×106 kg (1500 metric tons) of Cl2daily, estimate the quantities of H2 produced. Express your answerusing two significant figures.
B.If the plant produces 1.5×106 kg (1500 metric tons) of Cl2daily, estimate the quantities of NaOH produced. Express youranswer using two significant figures.
