Last Answer : For a start, your equation isn't balanced; it should be Cl2 (Cl2, not 2Cl, because of HONClBrIF). Given this, if we assume the reaction goes to completion, 1.5 mol Cl2 will produce 1.5 mol ... .3% Incidentally, is that supposed to be CO or Co? It has no effect on the calculation, just curious.

Description : Isn't carbon monoxide heavier than air? If so shouldn't CO detectors be put at floor level?

Last Answer : molecular weight of CO ~ 28 (12+16), while the main ingredients of air are O2 = 32 (2 16) and N2 = 28; mixed together, that's heavier than CO. Alone from that, I'd say CO is lighter. Of course ... right says lighter than air . So CO rises. Therefore, again, keep your head down in case of smoke ;-)!
