Electron transition can be likened to moving up and down a ladder. Which of the following statements best describes how an electron transitions in an electron cloud? A. An electron can only gain or lose energy to move between quantized energy levels.
B. An electron can only gain or lose charge in integers when ions are formed.
C. An electron can only change its mass in quantized amounts when it gains or loses energy.
D. An electron can only change into certain types of particles when it gains or loses charge.​

C. An electron can only change its mass in quantized amounts when it gains or loses energy.

Explanation:

given:

mass of na = 115 g

excess cl2

to determine:

mass of nacl produced

explanation:

given reaction is-

2na(s) + cl2(g) → 2nacl(s)

since cl2 is in excess, na will be the limiting reagent

as per the reaction stoichiometry na: nacl = 1: 1

i.e. moles of na reacted = moles of nacl formed

now, # moles of na = mass of na/atomic mass

                                  = 115 g/23 g.mol-1 = 5 moles

therefore, moles of nacl = 5

molar mass of nacl = 58 g/mol

mass of nacl = 5 moles * 58 g.mol-1 = 290 g

ans: amount of nacl produced = 290 g
