The correct option is C.
An ionic compound is one which is made up of ions, which are held together by electrostatic force called ionic bonding. The compounds are usually made up of electrically charged particles, they have high melting and boiling points and they are good conduct of electricity. Ionic compounds are typically made up of metals and non metals.
Thus, CO2 is not an ionic compound, it is a covalent compound.

How many grams of carbon monoxide are needed to react with an excess of iron (III) oxide to produce 198.5 grams of iron? Fe2O3(s

erastova [34]

Answer : The grams of carbon monoxide needed are 148.89 g

Solution : Given,

Mass of iron, Fe = 198.5 g

Molar mass of iron, Fe = 56 g/mole

Molar mass of carbon monoxide, CO = 28 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of iron, Fe.

$\text{ Moles of Fe}=\frac{\text{ Mass of Fe}}{\text{ Molar mass of Fe}}=\frac{198.5g}{56g/mole}=3.545moles$

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$Fe_2O_3(s)+3CO(g)\rightarrow 3CO_2(g)+2Fe(s)$

From the balanced reaction, we conclude that

2 moles of iron produces from the 3 moles of carbon monoxide

3.545 moles of iron produces from the $\frac{3}{2}\times 3.545=5.3175$ moles of carbon monoxide

Now we have to calculate the mass of carbon monoxide, CO.

$\text{ Mass of CO}=\text{ Moles of CO}\times \text{ Molar mass of CO}$

$\text{ Mass of CO}=(5.3175moles)\times (28g/mole)=148.89g$

Therefore, the grams of carbon monoxide needed are 148.89 g
