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

dimaraw [331]

Answer:

Metals consist of giant structures of atoms arranged in a regular pattern. The electrons from the outer shells of the metal atoms are delocalised , and are free to move through the whole structure. This sharing of delocalised electrons results in strong metallic bonding .
