The correct statement regarding the limiting reactant for the reaction between 4 moles of iron and 3 moles of oxygen is: They are both equal. (Option A)

<h3>Balanced equation</h3>

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction between iron and oxygen. This is given below:

4Fe + 3O₂ --> 2Fe₂O₃

SUMMARY

From the balanced equation above,

4 moles of Fe reacted with 3 moles of O₂

<h3>How to determine the limiting reactant</h3>

The limiting reactant is the reactant that is consumed completly in a chemical reaction.

The limiting reactant can be obtain as illustrated below:

From the balanced equation above,

4 moles of Fe reacted with 3 moles of O₂

From the illustration above, we can see that 3 moles of Fe required 4 moles of O₂ for complete reaction.

Thus, Fe and O₂ are both the limiting reactant.

Therefore, we can conclude that Fe and O₂ are equal

Just remember how many electrons can each sublevel hold.

S=2
P=6
D=10

Since we have 10 for atomic number, we can assume we have 10 electrons

1S2
2S2
2P6
The rest have zero because we already have 10 (2+2+6=10)

7. Which of the following would lower the pitch of a string instrument's sound?
vfiekz [6]

The correct option is C.

The pitch of a string refers to the quality of sound that is produced by the string when it vibrates. There are three basic factors that affect the quality of pitch of a string, these are: the tension, the thickness of the string and the length of the string. The higher the thickness of the string, the lower the pitch of the string, thus, increasing the thickness of the string will lower the pitch.
