Answer:

Oxidation reaction

Explanation:

Rust is formed when iron reacts with oxygen in moist air. The following chemical equation represents the reaction: 4Fe + 3O2 → 2Fe2O3. Water is necessary for the oxidation reaction to occur and to facilitate transport of the electrons

Your reaction
.. Fe + O2 ---> FexOy
for this reaction..
.. the Fe on the left is in the 0 oxidation state
.. the Fe on the right is in the +(2y/x) oxidation state
.. the O on the left is in the 0 oxidation state
.. the O on the right is in the -2 oxidation state
meaning
.. the O is reduced... . . (it's reduced in oxidation state)
.. the Fe is oxidized.. . .(oxidation state increased)
this is a REDOX reaction

*********
AND.. it's also a synthesis reaction.. (aka combination reaction)

What is true of a reaction that has reached equilibrium? The rate of the forward reaction is greater than the rate of the revers
STALIN [3.7K]
Equilibrium is reached when the net reaction is zero. The reaction is consistent, when reactants and products are neither excessively consumed, nor produced.
The rate of the forward reaction is equal to the rate of the reverse reaction.

The enthalpy change for converting 10.0 g of ice at -25.0 °C to water at 90.0 °C is __________ kJ. The specific heats of ice, wa
Nina [5.8K]
AH1 = m * c1 * AT1 calculate this for ice (-25C to 0C) AH2 = AHfus(1 mole)=6.01 kJ = 6010 J AH3 = m *c3 * AT3 calculat this for water (0C to 100C) AH4 = AHvap(1mole)=40.67 kJ = 40670 J AH5= m * c5 * AT5 calculate this for steam (100C to 125C) 
Sum ---- AH1+AH2+AH3+AH4+AH5 
Data m=18g (1mole water) 
c1=specific heat ice= 2.09 J/g K c3=specific heat water= 4.18 J/g K c5=specific heat steam= 1.84 J/g K 
AT = (Tend - Tinitial) as this is a difference between temperatures it doesn't matter the units Celsius or Kelvin. Kelvin (K)=Celsius (C)+273.15 
AT1 = 0C - (-25C)= 25C= 273.15K - 248.15K= 25K AT3= 100C - 0C = 100C= 100K AT5= 125C - 100C= 25C=25K

The combustion of glucose (c6h12o6) with oxygen gas produces carbon dioxide and water. this process releases 2803 kj per mole of
V125BC [204]

Answer:- 335 kcal of heat energy is produced.

Solution:- The balanced equation for the combustion of glucose in presence of oxygen to give carbon dioxide and water is:

C_6H_1_2O_6+6O_2\rightarrow 6CO_2+6H_2O

From given info, 2803 kJ of heat is released bu the combustion of 1 mol of glucose. We need to calculate the energy produced when 3.00 moles of oxygen react with excess of glucose.

We could solve this using dimensional analysis as:

3.00mol O_2(\frac{1mol glucose}{6mol O_2})(\frac{2803 kJ}{1mol glucose})

= 1401.5 kJ

Now, let's convert kJ to kcal.

We know that, 1kcal = 4.184kJ

So, 1401.5kJ(\frac{1kcal}{4.184kJ})

= 335 kcal

Hence, 335 kcal of heat energy is produced by the use of 3.00 moles of oxygen gas.

SVETLANKA909090 [29]
We know that:
mass = density x volume
The volume of the total mixture is 0.1 m³
Let the first liquid be A and the second be B
Mass Total = Mass A + Mass B

800 x 0.1 = 1500Va + 500(0.1 - Va)
30 = 1000Va
Va = 0.03 m³
Vb = 0.1 - 0.03 = 0.07 m³
