C. A lipid with three unsaturated fatty acids.
(got the question correct on a test)
A way of building knowledge about the world around us through observation and experimentation.
The balanced chemical reaction would be
<span>fecl2 + 2naoh = fe(oh)2(s) + 2nacl
Initial amounts of the reactants are given, so, we need to determine which of the reactants is the limiting reactant and use this amount to determine what is asked. However, what is being asked is how many of the FeCl2 is used in the reaction, showing that it is NaOH that is the limiting reactants. Thus, we just use the initial amount of NaOH and relate the substances by the chemical reaction as follows:
6 mol NaOH ( 1 mol FeCl2 / 2 mol NaOH ) = 3 mol FeCl2
Therefore, 3 moles of FeCl2 is used up and 3 moles of FeCl2 is also left after the reaction.</span>
Reactant molecules are any substance that goes into a reaction. When forming product molecules, the reactant molecules combine and create a new molecule (i.e. the combination of methane and oxygen can make carbon dioxide and water).
