It is:
Iron (III) Oxide

As a transition metal iron can have two oxidation states <span>F<span>e+</span>2</span> ferrous or <span>F<span>e+</span>3</span>ferric.

Oxygen has an oxidation state of <span>O<span>−2</span></span>.

In the case of <span>F<span>e2</span><span>O3</span></span> the oxidation states are balanced when 2 <span>F<span>e<span>+3</span></span></span> ions pair with 3 <span>O<span>−2</span></span>.

<span>F<span>e2</span><span>O3</span></span> is Iron (III) oxide where the roman numeral informs us that the charge on the iron is +3, the common name would be ferric oxide.

If the iron was <span>F<span>e<span>+2</span></span></span> and the oxygen <span>O<span>−2</span></span>, the formula would be FeO Iron (II) oxide or ferrous oxide.

Answer:

Part 1. When the balloon is filled half of the way, and placed into the freezer, it will shrink. This happens because kinetic molecular theory tells us that a decrease in temperature decreases the kinetic energy of the gas molecules in the balloon. Viscous gases like hydrogen are less likely to shrink.

Part 2. When the balloon is placed out in the hot sun, most likely the balloon will swell and grow. This happens because the kinetic energy of the gas molecules increases due to solar radiation transforming into heat energy and then transforming into kinetic energy. Sticky gases like neon are more likely to grow.

A tank is filled with gasoline to a depth of exactly 2 feet. The tank is a cylinder resting horizontally on its side, with its c
inna [77]

Answer:

The volume of the gasoline in the tank is 18.85 cubic feet

Explanation:

The tank is a cylinder. The equation for calculating the cylinder volumen is πr²*h, r is radius and h is height. π is approximately 3.1416. So,  The tank is  resting horizontally on its side, its radius is 2 feet/2= 1 feet. h=a tank long= 6 feet.

With equation:

Vol gasoline=3.1416*1²*6=18.85 feet ³
