One molecule of Iodine (I2) and two molecules of sodium chloride (NaCl) combine in a reaction. How many atoms are in the products?

1 answer

In the reaction between one molecule of iodine (I2) and two molecules of sodium chloride (NaCl), the products formed are two molecules of sodium iodide (NaI).

The molecular formula for sodium iodide is NaI, which means it consists of one sodium atom (Na) and one iodine atom (I).

Therefore, the number of atoms in the products is 1 atom of sodium (Na) and 1 atom of iodine (I).

So, there are a total of 2 atoms in the products.
