Rocks are heated, metamorphosed, melted, weathered, sediment is transported, deposited and lithified, then it may be metamorphosed again in yet another cycle.  This recycling of the material of the Earth's crust has been going on for billions of years, as far back as there is a preserved geologic record (about 4 billion years). Weathering and erosion at the Earth's surface can break down rocks into small bits. These can be deposited as sediments that become sedimentary rocks. Burial, with rising pressure and temperature, can alter sedimentary (as well as any other) rocks to form metamorphic rocks. Continued rise in temperature can eventually melt rocks and produce magma. Cooling of magmas leads to igneous rocks, etc.

The reaction of hydrogen gas and iron oxide is described by the chemical equation below. 3H2+Fe2O3→2Fe+3H2O How many moles of ir
ELEN [110]

Answer:

2.2 moles of Fe will be produced

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Number of moles of hydrogen gas = 3.3 moles

Number of moles of iron oxide = 1.5 moles

Step 2: The balanced equation

3H2 + Fe2O3 → 2Fe + 3H2O

Step 3: Calculate the limiting reactant

For 3 moles H2 we need 1 mol Fe2O3 to produce 2 moles Fe and 3 moles H2O

Hydrogen gas is the limiting reactant. It will completely be consumed (3.3 moles). Fe2O3 is in excess. There will react 3.3 / 3 = 1.1 moles

There will remain 1.5 - 1.1 = 0.4 moles Fe2O3

Step 4: Calculate moles Fe

For 3 moles H2 we need 1 mol Fe2O3 to produce 2 moles Fe and 3 moles H2O

For 3.3 moles H2 we'll have 2/3 * 3.3 = 2.2 moles Fe

2.2 moles of Fe will be produced

A rock falls off a cliff and hits the ground after three seconds. What is its velocity right before it hits the ground?
Amiraneli [1.4K]
To solve this kinematics formula use the following equation:

Vf = Vi + at
Vf = 0 + (9.81 m/s^2)(3 seconds)
Vf = 29.43 m/s and or about 29.4 m/s of reported to 3 significant figures.
