Answer:

6 C(s) +  3 O₂(g) + 2 Fe₂O₃(s) →  4 Fe(s) + 6 CO₂(g)

Explanation:

Iron can be formed in two steps.

Step 1: 2 C(s) + O₂(g) → 2 CO(g)

Step 2: Fe₂O₃(s) + 3 CO(g) → 2 Fe(s) + 3 CO₂(g)

In order to get the net chemical equation, we will multiply the first step by 3, the second step by 2, and then add them.

6 C(s) +  3 O₂(g) → 6 CO(g)

+

2 Fe₂O₃(s) + 6 CO(g) → 4 Fe(s) + 6 CO₂(g)

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

6 C(s) +  3 O₂(g) + 2 Fe₂O₃(s) + 6 CO(g) → 6 CO(g) + 4 Fe(s) + 6 CO₂(g)

6 C(s) +  3 O₂(g) + 2 Fe₂O₃(s) →  4 Fe(s) + 6 CO₂(g)

If an atom has an atomic number of 6 and and abdomens mass of 12 how many electrons does it have
Basile [38]
Atomic number refers to the proton number of the atom itself. Number of electrons in an atom (an atom that is not reacted with any other molecules / Just the atom alone), is the same as the number of protons, because each electron has 1 negative charge, and each proton 1 positive charge, where they cancel out on each other to become a neutral charge.

So, when atomic number is 6, proton number is also 6, and number of electrons will also be 6 in that atom.

Hope this helps! :)

Mass of oxygen gas needed to burn 37.5g of wax
Slav-nsk [51]
Answer is: mass oxygen is 129,28 grams.
Chemical reaction: 2C₁₈H₃₈ + 55O₂ → 36CO₂ + 38H₂O.
m(C₁₈H₃₈) = 37,5 g.
n(C₁₈H₃₈) = m(C₁₈H₃₈) ÷ M(C₁₈H₃₈).
n(C₁₈H₃₈) = 37,5 g ÷ 254 g/mol.
n(C₁₈H₃₈) = 0,147 mol.
From chemical reaction: n(C₁₈H₃₈) : n(O₂) = 2 : 55.
n(O₂) = 4,04 mol.
m(O₂) = 4,04 mol · 32 g/mol.
m(O₂) = 129,28 g.

Answer:

Fatty Acids

A lipid is an organic compound such as fat or oil. Organisms use lipids to store energy, but lipids have other important roles as well. Lipids consist of repeating units called fatty acids. Fatty acids are organic compounds that have the general formula CH3(CH2)nCOOH" role="presentation" style="display: inline-table; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; font-size: 17.6px; text-indent: 0px; text-align: left; text-transform: none; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: normal; overflow-wrap: normal; white-space: nowrap; float: none; direction: ltr; max-width: none; max-height: none; min-width: 0px; min-height: 0px; border: 0px; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; position: relative;">CH3(CH2)nCOOHCH3(CH2)nCOOH, where n" role="presentation" style="display: inline-table; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; font-size: 17.6px; text-indent: 0px; text-align: left; text-transform: none; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: normal; overflow-wrap: normal; white-space: nowrap; float: none; direction: ltr; max-width: none; max-height: none; min-width: 0px; min-height: 0px; border: 0px; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; position: relative;">nn usually ranges from 2 to 28 and is always an even number. There are two types of fatty acids: saturated fatty acids and unsaturated fatty acids.

Saturated Fatty Acids

In saturated fatty acids, carbon atoms are bonded to as many hydrogen atoms as possible. This causes the molecules to form straight chains, as shown in the figure below. The straight chains can be packed together very tightly, allowing them to store energy in a compact form. This explains why saturated fatty acids are solids at room temperature. Animals use saturated fatty acids to store energy.

Unsaturated Fatty Acids

In unsaturated fatty acids, some carbon atoms are not bonded to as many hydrogen atoms as possible due to the presence of one or more double bonds in the carbon chain. Instead, they are bonded to other groups of atoms. Wherever carbon binds with these other groups of atoms, it causes chains to bend (see figure above). The bent chains cannot be packed together very tightly, so unsaturated fatty acids are liquids at room temperature. Plants use unsaturated fatty acids to store energy.

Figure 14.2.2" role="presentation" style="display: inline-table; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; line-height: normal; font-size: 16px; text-indent: 0px; text-align: left; text-transform: none; letter-spacing: normal; word-spacing: normal; overflow-wrap: normal; white-space: nowrap; float: none; direction: ltr; max-width: none; max-height: none; min-width: 0px; min-height: 0px; border: 0px; padding: 0px; margin: 0px; position: relative;">14.2.214.2.2: Saturated fatty acids have only single bonds while monounsaturated fats have one double bond and polyunsaturated fats have more than one double bond.

Lipids and Diet

Unsaturated fat is generally considered to be healthier because it contains fewer calories than an equivalent amount of saturated fat. Additionally, high consumption of saturated fats is linked to an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. Some examples of foods with high concentrations of saturated fats include butter, cheese, lard, and some fatty meats. Foods with higher concentrations of unsaturated fats include nuts, avocado, and vegetable oils such as canola oil and olive oil.
