Carbon ii oxide (CO) acts as a reducing agent such that it reduces oxides of less reactive metals in the reactivity series such as lead, copper and zinc.
Therefore a reaction between carbon ii oxide and iron ii oxide will be;
Fe2O3 (s) + 3CO (g) = 3CO2 (g) + 2Fe (s)
 The mass of 35 g of Fe contains  0.625 moles  ( 35 g ÷56 g)
Using the mole ratio of CO : Fe which is 3:2 , we can get the number of mole of CO needed,
 That is 0.625 × 3/ 2 = 0.9375 moles
Therefore, 0.9375 moles are required, but 1 mole of CO = 28 g,
the mass of CO required will therefore be 0.9375 × 28 = 26.25 g
thus 26.25 g of CO are needed

xenn [34]

<u>Answer:</u> The percent composition of Fe_3O_4 in taconite is 37.6 %.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Mass of taconite pellets = 1 ton = 907185 g      (Conversion factor: 1 ton = 907185 g)

Mass of iron produced = 545 lb = 247212 g    (Conversion factor:  1 lb = 453.6 g )

We know that:

Molar mass of iron = 55.85 g/mol

Molar mass of Fe_3O_4 = 231.53 g/mol

1 mole of Fe_3O_4 contains 3 moles of iron atom and 4 moles of oxygen atom

(3 × 55.85) = 167.55 g of iron is produced from 231.53 grams of Fe_3O_4

So, 247212 grams of iron will be produced from = \frac{231.53}{167.55}\times 247212=341611.43g of Fe_3O_4

To calculate the percentage of Fe_3O_4 in taconite, we use the equation:

\%\text{ composition of }Fe_3O_4=\frac{\text{Mass of }Fe_3O_4}{\text{Mass of taconite}}\times 100

Mass of taconite = 907185 g

Mass of Fe_3O_4 = 341611.43 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\%\text{ composition of }Fe_3O_4=\frac{341611.43g}{907185g}\times 100=37.6\%

Hence, the percent composition of Fe_3O_4 in taconite is 37.6 %.

Potential energy is energy due to an object's height above the ground.
Potential energy = mass x gravity x height
Kinetic energy is energy due to the motion of the object.
Kinetic energy = 1/2 x mass x velocity²

1.
The ball is not moving and is at a height above the ground so it has only potential energy.
P.E = 2 x 9.81 x 40
P.E = 784.8 J

2.
The ball is moving and has a height above the Earth's surface so it has both kinetic and potential energy.
P.E = same as part 1 = 784.8 J
K.E = 1/2 x 2 x 5²
K.E = 25 J

3.
The ball has no height above the Earth's surface and is moving so it has only kinetic energy.
K.E = 1/2 x 2 x 10²
K.E = 100 J

4.
50000 = 1/2 x 1000 x v²
v = 10 m/s

5.
39200 = 200 x 9.81 x h
h = 20.0 m

6.
12.5 = 1/2 x 1 x v²
v = 5 m/s
98 = 1 x 9.81 x h
h = 10.0 m
