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)

The rock in a lead ore deposit contains 89 % PbS by mass. How many kilograms of the rock must be processed to obtain 1.5 kg of P
Zolol [24]

Answer:

Approximately 1.9 kilograms of this rock.

Explanation:

Relative atomic mass data from a modern periodic table:

  • Pb: 207.2;
  • S: 32.06.

To answer this question, start by finding the mass of Pb in each kilogram of this rock.

89% of the rock is \rm PbS. There will be 890 grams of \rm PbS in one kilogram of this rock.

Formula mass of \rm PbS:

M(\mathrm{PbS}) = 207.2 + 32.06 = 239.26\; g\cdot mol^{-1}.

How many moles of \rm PbS formula units in that 890 grams of \rm PbS?

\displaystyle n = \frac{m}{M} = \rm \frac{890}{239.26} = 3.71980\; mol.

There's one mole of \rm Pb in each mole of \rm PbS. There are thus \rm 3.71980\; mol of \rm Pb in one kilogram of this rock.

What will be the mass of that \rm 3.71980\; mol of \rm Pb?

m(\mathrm{Pb}) = n(\mathrm{Pb}) \cdot M(\mathrm{Pb}) = \rm 3.71980 \times 207.2 = 770.743\; g = 0.770743\; kg.

In other words, the \rm PbS in 1 kilogram of this rock contains \rm 0.770743\; kg of lead \rm Pb.

How many kilograms of the rock will contain enough \rm PbS to provide 1.5 kilogram of \rm Pb?

\displaystyle \frac{1.5}{0.770743} \approx \rm 1.9\; kg.

If the compound has a molar mass of 156 g/mol, what is its molecular formula?
oksano4ka [1.4K]
I believe that the choices for this question are:
C2H4O2, C4H8O4 CH2O, C6H12O6 C3H6O3, C6H12O6 C2H4O2, C6H12O6 
 
The answer to this based on the molar masses given is:
C2H4O2, C6H12O6 
 
To prove calculate the molar mass:
C2H4O2 = 2*12 + 4*1 + 2*16 = 60
C6H12O6 = 6*12 + 12*1 + 6*16 = 180
