What is the oxidation of Fe in Fe2O3

Chemistry
1 answer:
Inessa05 [86]3 years ago
4 0

Answer/ explanation :

The oxidation number of Fe

In Fe2O3

To solve this problem,

The oxidation number of O is -2

Oxidation number of Fe is x

Note that there are 2moles of Fe and 3moles of O

2 Fe + (-2 * 3) = 0

2 Fe + (-6) = 0

2 Fe - 6 = 0

2 Fe = 6

Fe = 6/2

Fe = +3

Therefore, the oxidation number of Fe is +3

The sign is very important, either - or +

It is important to understand the differences between chemical and physical changes. Chemical changes result in new substances,
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

Melting of ice

Explanation:

A physical change is one in which just the physical properties of the matter is altered. Most phase changes reaction falls under this type of change.

  • Examples are boiling, melting, freezing, condensation, sublimation, magnetization of metals, breaking glass, cutting wood.
  1. No new kinds of matter is formed.
  2. The process is reversible
  3. No change in mass

How much CaCO3 would have to be decomposed to produce 247 g of CaO
vovangra [49]

441 g CaCO₃ would have to be decomposed to produce 247 g of CaO

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Reaction

Decomposition of CaCO₃

CaCO₃ ⇒ CaO + CO₂

mass CaO = 247 g

mol of CaO(MW=56 g/mol) :

\tt mol=\dfrac{mass}{MW}\\\\mol=\dfrac{247}{56}\\\\mol=4.41

From equation, mol ratio CaCO₃ : CaO = 1 : 1, so mol CaO :

\tt \dfrac{1}{1}\times 4.41=4.41

mass CaCO₃(MW=100 g/mol) :

\tt mass=mol\times MW\\\\mass=4.41\times 100\\\\mass=441~g

Describe the relationship between the radius of a cation and that of the atom from which forms.
vichka [17]

The radius of the cation is much smaller than the corresponding neutral atom.(b) The radius of an anion is much larger than the corresponding neutral atom.Explanation:The size of the atom or ion is inversely proportional to the nuclear charge experienced by the electrons.(a)The size of the cation is smaller than the size of the corresponding neutral atom. This is because after removal of an electron from the highest principle energy level the nuclear charge experienced by the valence electrons increases resulting in the decrease in size.(b)The size of an anion is larger than the size of the corresponding neutral atom. In an anion, an extra electron is added to the highest principle energy level but the effective nuclear charge pulling the electrons towards the nucleus is still same. The net effective nuclear charge experienced by the electrons present in the outermost shell decrease. Moreover, due to the added electron, the repulsion between the electrons also increases resulting in the increase in size

Use the van der waals equation to calculate the pressure exerted by 1.335 mol of cl2 in a volume of 4.920 l at a temperature of
nika2105 [10]
<span>Van der waal or ideal eqn is given by PV = NRT; P = NRT/ V. Where N = 1.335 is the number of moles. T = 272K is temperature. V = 4.920L is the volume. And R = 0.08205L. Substiting the values into the eqn; we have, P = (1.331* 0.08205 * 272)/ 4.920 = 29.7047/ 4.920 = 6.03atm.</span>
