ANSWER
I

+2Cl
2
→ICl+ICl

Molar mass of I

=127
Molar mass of Cl

=70.9
Moles of I

used =
127
25.4
= 0.2 moles of I

Moles of Cl

used =
70.9
14.2
= 0.2 moles of Cl
2
Since the stoichiometry indicates that each mole of I
2
reacts with 2 moles of Cl
2
to give 1 mole each of ICl and ICl

.
Chlorine is limiting reagent, in this case.
Hence 0.2-mole chlorine will react with 0.1 moles of iodine to form 0.1 mole each of the product.
Hence, the correct option is A
