Answer:

[tex]\boxed{ \text{0.303 mol}}[/tex]

Explanation:

(a) Balanced equation

2Fe + 3Cl₂ ⟶2FeCl₃

(b) Calculation

You want to convert moles of Cl₂ to moles of Fe.

The molar ratio is 2 mol Fe:3 mol Cl₂

[tex]\text{Moles of Fe} =\text{0.455 mol Cl$_{2}$} \times \dfrac{\text{2 mol Fe}}{\text{3 mol Cl$_{2}$}} = \textbf{0.303 mol Fe}\\\\\boxed{ \textbf{0.303 mol of Fe}}\text{ will react.}[/tex]
