2Fe(OH)3 Fe2O3+3H2O how many grams of Fe2O3 are produced if 10.7 grams of Fe (OH)3 react in this way
sasho [114]

Answer: 7.98 grams of Fe_2O_3 are produced if 10.7 grams of Fe(OH)_3 are reacted.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}      .....(1)  

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of} Fe(OH)_3=\frac{10.7g}{106.87g/mol}=0.100mol  

The chemical equation for the reaction is

2Fe(OH)_3\rightarrow Fe_2O_3+3H_2O

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of Fe(OH)_3 produce = 1 mole of Fe_2O_3

So, 0.100 moles of Fe(OH)_3 produce= \frac{1}{2}\times 0.100=0.05mol of Fe_2O_3  

Mass of Fe_2O_3 =moles\times {\text{Molar Mass}}=0.05mol\times 159.69g/mol=7.98g  

Hence 7.98 grams of Fe_2O_3 are produced if 10.7 grams of Fe(OH)_3 are reacted.

Which of the following is a possible set of quantum numbers for an electron (n,l,m0,ms) ?
Mashutka [201]

Answer is: (3, 2, 0, -1/2).

The principal quantum number (n) is one of four quantum numbers which are assigned to each electron in an atom to describe that electron's state.

For principal quantum number n=3:  

1) azimuthal quantum number (l) can be l = 0...n-1:  

l = 0, 1, 2.  

The azimuthal quantum number determines its orbital angular momentum and describes the shape of the orbital.  

2) magnetic quantum number (ml) can be ml = -l...+l.  

ml = -2, -1, 0, +1, +2.

Magnetic quantum number specify orientation of electrons in magnetic field and number of electron states (orbitals) in subshells.  

3) the spin quantum number (ms), is the spin of the electron.  

ms = +1/2, -1/2.  

(1, 1, 0, +1/2)  is not correct because orbital quantum number cannot be l = 1 for n = 1.

(2, 1, 2, +1/2)  is not correct because magnetic quantum number cannot be ml = 2 for orbital quantum number l = 1.

(3, -2, 1, -1/2) is not correct because orbital quantum number cannot be l = -2 for principal quantum number n = 3.

1. Explain the two processes that keep atmospheric oxygen and carbon dioxide at stable levels?
lesya [120]

Cellular Respiration and Photosynthesis. Photosynthesis is the process of when plants use sunlight to make foods from carbon dioxide and water, to later on make oxygen. Cellular respiration is the process through which cells convert sugars into energy.
