Hello!

A) The balanced chemical reaction is

Fe₂O₃(s)+ 3CO(g) → 2Fe(s) + 3CO₂(g)

We can use the following conversion factor to go from kg of Fe₂O₃ to moles of CO, in the following way:

5kg Fe_2O_3* \frac{1000 g}{1 kg}* \frac{1 mol Fe_2O_3}{159,69 g Fe_2O_3}* \frac{3 mol CO}{1 mol Fe_2O_3} =93,93 moles CO

So, the required amount of CO is 93,93 moles.

B) To calculate the moles of each product we'll use the following conversion factors to go from moles of CO to moles of product, using the reaction coefficients:

93,93 moles CO* \frac{2 moles Fe}{3 moles CO}=62,62 moles Fe \\ \\ 93,93 moles CO* \frac{3 moles CO_2}{3 moles CO}=93,93 moles CO_2

So, the moles of Fe are 62,62 and the moles of CO₂ are 93,93.

Have a nice day!

What happens in the body when we break down carbohydrates? Explain the whole course of events.
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

Energetic molecules are formed, or rather the energetic currency to be able to live, which we call ATP.

Explanation:

ATP is a molecule that arises from the degradation of carbohydrates, these are destroyed for the first time in the mouth by the enzyme salivary amylase, then by the stomach, and finally they are absorbed in the intestine in the form of glucose, this glucose enters the bloodstream, entering the cells through insulin.

Once glucose is entered into the cell, it completes an energetic cycle, called the krebs cycle, which provides 36 to 38 ATP.

Atp, is adenosine tri phosphate, phosphate bonds protect a lot of energy, this is how the body generates the following reaction when it needs energy, releasing energy to the environment to be able to produce from locomotion to respiration:

ATP -----> ADP + Pi

I have 345 mL of a 1.5 M NaCl solution. If I boil the water until the volume of the solution is 250 mL, what will the molarity o
likoan [24]
We know that molarity = mol/L, so:

1.5 M = x mol/0.345 L

1.5 M * 0.345 L = x mol => 0.5175 mol

0.5175 mol/0.250 L = 2.07 M

Your new molarity of the solution will be 2.07 M.

Which of these characteristics do these elements have in common?
Over [174]

C) They each form similar compounds when combined with oxygen.

Explanation:

The given elements have a common characteristics as they each form similar compounds when combined with oxygen.

Beryllium, magnesium and calcium all are located in the alkaline earth group.

Elements in the same group have the same chemical properties.

  • Density and melting point are physical properties of matter which varies down a group on the periodic table.
  • Their reaction with oxygen denotes a statement of their chemical properties.
  • Chemical properties of matter is a function of their valency.
  • Group two elements have a valency of two. They have two electrons in their outermost shell.
  • Therefore, they all form ionic bonds when they react with oxygen.
