Solutions of sodium hypochlorite, NaClO are sold as bleach. They are prepared by the following reaction:
2NaOH + Cl2 --> NaCl + NaClO + H2O
If you have 2.32 mol of NaOH and 2.74 mol of Cl2 ga available to react, answer the following questions
Na: 23.0 amu Cl:35.5 amu O: 16.0 amu
1 How many moles of NaClO can be produced from the sodium hydroxide?
2 How many moles of NaClO can be produced from the chlorine gas?
3 Based on your findings for a and b, what is the maximum number of grams of sodium hypochlorite that can be produced from the moles of sodium hydroxide and chlorine gas provided?

This is a limiting reagent problem but you start with mols instead of grams. See your previous problem.
