The balanced equation is 
4Fe+3O₂⇒2Fe₂O₃

We know that the mole of Fe₂O₃ is 6, and since the ratio between oxygen and <span>Fe₂O₃ is 3:2, we can see that

3:2 = x:6 (3 oxygen moles can make 2 </span>Fe₂O₃ moles = x oxygen moles can make 6 <span>Fe₂O₃ moles)
</span><span>
Multiply outside and inside (3*6 , 2*x) and put them on opposing sides of the equation

2*x = 3*6
2x=18
x=9
Therefore 9 moles of oxygen is needed.

The reaction Fe203 occurs when oxygen and iron metal react to each other. The complete balanced formula for the chemical equations will be " 4Fe + 302 -> 2 Fe203. You will need to multiply 6 mols by 3/2 (1.5) and that will give the 9 mols needed to find the number of moles of oxygen that are needed.

What products would you expect from the reaction of ammonia and sulfuric acid in aqueous solution? 2nh3(aq)+h2so4(aq)→ ?
arsen [322]
From the reaction of ammonia and sulfuric acid in aqueous solution 2nh3(aq)+h2so4(aq)<span>→</span> (NH4)2SO4 + H2O will be formed.Sulfuric acid is diprotic so is able to give up 2 H+ ions. It is an acid-base neutralisation reaction forming ammonium sulphate as the salt. 2NH3 with H2SO4 reacts in a neutralization reaction to form salt water, with ammonium sulphate left behind to crystallize after evaporation.

The smallest unit of an element that retains all the characteristics of that element is called a(n)
Maksim231197 [3]
<span>The smallest unit of an element that retains all the characteristics of that element is called an A. atom.
Atoms consist of protons, electrons, and neutrons, but they are particles and don't have the characteristics of the element which is why D is incorrect. B and C are not the smallest units - atoms are smaller than them.
