It is true that the iron recommendation for girls exceeds that of boys during adolescence.

During an adolescence, girls and boys require iron for a large growth spurt and the gain of adult phenotypes and biologic rhythms.

In this period of the life, iron recommendation increase in both girls and boys, because of the increase in lean body mass, the expansion of the total blood volume, the increase and start of menstruation at girls.

Iron is essential for oxygen transport, red blood cell creation, cognitive performance and immunological function.

The overall iron requirements for girls are up to twice as boys.

How many moles of chromium III nitrate are produced When chromium reacts with 0.85 moles of lead for nitrate to produce chromium

Pepsi [2]

0.85 moles formula units of lead nitrate will produce 0.57 moles formula units of chromium (III) nitrate.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Typically, the oxidation state of Pb in lead nitrate tend to be +2. In other words, Pb in lead nitrate tends to exist as $\text{Pb}^{2+}$ ions. The formula for a nitrate ion is ${\text{NO}_3}^{-}$ . The charge on each of the nitrate ion is -1. The charge on the two ions should balance. As a result, each $\text{Pb}^{2+}$ ion in lead nitrate would pair up with two ${\text{NO}_3}^{-}$ ions. The formula for lead nitrate will be $\text{Pb}({\text{NO}_3})_2$ . Each formula unit of lead nitrate will contain one $\text{Pb}^{2+}$ ion and two ${\text{NO}_3}^{-}$ ions.

The "III" in the name "chromium (III) nitrate" is a Roman Numeral. It indicates that the oxidation state of Cr in chromium (III) nitrate is +3. The Cr in that compound will exist as $\text{Cr}^{3+}$ . Similarly, each $\text{Cr}^{3+}$ will pair up with three ${\text{NO}_3}^{-}$ ions. The formula for chromium (III) nitrate will be $\text{Cr}(\text{NO}_3})_3$ . Each formula unit of chromium (III) nitrate will contain one ${\text{NO}_3}^{-}$ ion and three ${\text{NO}_3}^{-}$ ions.

0.85 moles formula units of lead nitrate will contain 0.85 × 2 = 1.7 moles of ${\text{NO}_3}^{-}$ ions. Those nitrate ions will end up in 1.7 / 3 = 0.57 moles formula units of chromium (III) nitrate. As a result, the reaction will produce 0.57 moles formula units of chromium (III) nitrate.
