Question:

The interhalogen compounds can be prepared by direct reaction of the elements. The following syntheses were carried out at 298 K and 1.00 atm. In each case, give the volume of product at the same temperature and pressure that can be produced from 2.00 mol F₂ and an excess of Cl₂:

(a) Cl₂(g) + F₂(g) → 2 ClF(g);

(b) Cl₂(g) + 3 F₂(g) → 2 ClF₃(g);
