Answer:
c. 3
Explanation:
The unbalanced reaction expression is given as:
Fe + O₂ → Fe₂O₃
To balance the expression gives the coefficient of oxygen.
Assign the coefficients a,b, c and use a mathematical approach to solve this problem:
aFe + bO₂ → cFe₂O₃
Conserving Fe: a = 2c
O: 2b = 3c
Now let c = 1, a = 2, b = 
Multiply through by 2,
a = 4, b = 3 and c = 2
4Fe + 3O₂ → 2Fe₂O₃
The coefficient of O₂ is 3
Answer:
Atoms are composed of a central nucleus which is surrounded by orbiting <u>Electrons</u>.
Explanation:
The word Atom is derived from atomos meaning indivisible particle. An atom is a very small sized particle and its size is approximately 100 picometers.
Atoms are composed of a Nucleus which contains protons and neutrons and the nucleus is surrounded by orbiting electrons. Also, the nucleus is positively charged due to +ve protons and the electrons revolving around nucleus are -vely charged making overall atom neutral in nature.
Atoms react with another atoms due to the presence of valence electrons present in the valence shell of an atom. The valence electrons would make a covalent bond by mutually sharing the electrons or it may form an ionic bond by gaining and loosing valence electron.
Answer:
This cannot be determined without knowing the actual mass of the objects.
Explanation:
its like trying to compare the letter A and letter B
The answer is four hundred
