Question:

Solutions of sodium hypochlorite, NaClO, are sold as a bleach (such as Clorox). They are prepared by the reaction of chlorine with sodium hydroxide.
2NaOH(aq) + Cl2(g) → NaCl(aq) + NaClO(aq) + H2O(l)
If you have 1.23 mol of NaOH in solution and 1.47 mol of Cl2 gas available to react, which is the limiting reactant? How many moles of NaClO(aq) could be obtained?
