The balanced equation is Fe₂O₃ + 3 CO = 2 Fe + 3 CO₂.
Next step is to convert everything to moles.
12.6g Fe₂O₃ x (1 mol Fe₂O₃ / 159.7g Fe₂O₃) = 0.07890 mol Fe₂O₃ 
9.65g CO x (1 mol CO / 28.01g CO) = 0.3445 mol CO
The third step is to determine the limiting and excess reactants.
0.07890 mol Fe₂O₃ x (3 mol CO/1 mol Fe₂O₃) = 0.2367 mol CO
Therefore Fe₂O₃ is the limiting reagent while CO is in excess.

0.07890 mol Fe x (2 mol Fe(s) / 1 mol Fe₂O₃) = 0.1578 mol Fe(s) 
0.1578 mol Fe x (55.84g Fe / mole Fe) = 8.812g Fe is the theoretical yield
%yield = (7.23g / 8.812g) x 100% = 82.0% is the percent yield

Determine the elements with these electron configurations
lakkis [162]
Use a periodic table. Count the exponent for your atomic number. So, 1s2 2s2 2p5= Fluorine
1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p5= Chlorine
1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d6= Iron

What are the uses of solution?<br>​
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

The majority of chemical processes are reactions that occur in solution. Important industrial processes often utilize solution chemistry. "Life" is the sum of a series of complex processes occurring in solution. Air, tap water, tincture of iodine, beverages, and household ammonia are common examples of solutions.

four types of solution:

Turpentine as a solvent are used in the production of paints, inks and dyes. ↔Water as a solvent is used in the making of food, textiles, soaps and detergents. ↔Alloys are solid solutions that are used in the manufacture of cars, aerospace and other vehicles.

What is the volume of 0.200 mol of an ideal gas at 200. kPa and 400. K?
gregori [183]

The ideal gas under STP is 22.4 L/mol. While the gas has a rule of P1V1/T1=P2V2/T2. So the volume under 101 kPa and 273 K is 0.2*22.4=4.48 L.

A flame in a sealed container will go out. Explain what you know about combustion reactions to explain why.
klasskru [66]

Answer:

A combustion reaction is a reaction that involves a substance and oxygen reacts at high temperature and produces light energy and thermal energy and generate light and heat.

If a flame is in a sealed container it will go out due to the absence of oxygen to perform a combustion reaction that requires oxygen to produce heat and light. A flame is the result of a combustion reaction which also requires the oxygen to keep on burning.
