Answer #1

according to balanced reaction

70.906 g Cl2 reacts with 2 x 22.990 g Na

53.2 g Cl2 reacts with 53.2 x 2 x 22.990 / 70.906 = 34.498 g Na

but we have 84.9 g Na.

so Na present in excess

limiting reagent = Cl2.

now

70.906 g Cl2 gives 2 x 55.441 g NaCl

53.2 g Cl2 gives 53.2 x 2 x 55.441 / 70.906 = 83.193 g NaCl

theoretical yield of NaCl = 83.193 g
