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.

Thanks for the help :) Question attached below:

• Take a look at the steps below to see how to balance this equation. Let's start by writing the unbalanced equation given the information.

Unbalanced Equation : C₃H₈ (g) + O₂ (g) → CO₂ (g) + H₂O (g) ,

Start by Balancing the Carbons : C₃H₈ (g) + O₂ (g) → 3CO₂ (g) + H₂O (g)

Now let's balance the Hydrogen : C₃H₈ (g) + O₂ (g) → 3CO₂ (g) + 4H₂O (g)

Balancing the Oxygen : C₃H₈ (g) + 5O₂ (g) → 3CO₂ (g) + 4H₂O (g)

Balanced Equation : C₃H₈ (g) + 5O₂ (g) → 3CO₂ (g) + 4H₂O (g)

• Let's apply dimensional analysis here,

0.7 L propane × (5 liters Oxygen / 1 liter Propane) = 3.5 Liters of Oxygen

•  Similarly we can identify the liters of carbon dioxide produced in the reaction,

0.7 L propane × (3 liters Carbon Dioxide / 1 liter Propane) = 2.1 Liters of Carbon Dioxide

• 0.7 L propane × (4 liter water vapor / 1 liter propane ) = 2.8 Liters of Water Vapor

if a lead can be extrated with 92.5% efficiency,what is the mass of ore required to make a lead sphere with 750%cm radius
Lady_Fox [76]
The mass of ore required is 21 700 t.

r = 750 cm

V = \frac{4}{3}  \pi  r^{3} = \frac{4}{3}  \pi  (750 cm)^{3} = 1.767 × 10⁹ cm³

The density of lead is 11.34 g/cm³.

So mass of lead sphere = 1.767 × 10⁹ cm³ × \frac{11.34 g}{1 cm^{3} } = 2.004 ×10¹⁰ g

2.004 ×10¹⁰ g × \frac{1 kg}{1000 g} = 2.004 × 10⁷ kg

2.004 × 10⁷ kg × \frac{1 t}{1000 kg} = 2.004 × 10⁴ t

92.5% efficiency means 92.5 t Pb per 100 t of ore.

Mass of ore = 2.004 × 10⁴ t Pb ×\frac{100 tore}{92.5 t Pb} = 2.17 × 10⁴ t ore = 21 700 t ore
