<span>                                                    Au</span>₂(SeO₄)₃

                                         O = -2 × 4 = -8
                                             Se  =  + 6
So,
                                            (+6 - 8) = -2

Means (SeO₄) contains -2 charge, Now multiply -2 by 3
                                             
                                             -2 ₓ 3 = -6
Means,
                             Au₂ + (-6) = 0
               
                            Au₂  = +6
Or,
                            Au  =  6 / 2

                            Au  = +3
Result:
                            Au  =  +3
                            Se  =  +6
                            O   =  -2

                                                      Ni(CN)₂


Cyanide (CN⁻) contains -1 charge,
So,
                              N  =  -3
                              C  =  +2
Then,
                                         Ni + (-1)₂  =  0

                                               Ni - 2  =  0
Or,
                                                     Ni =  +2
Result:
                            N  =  -3
                            C  =  +2
                           Ni  =  +2

What mass of iron is formed when 10 grams of carbon react with 80 grams of iron iii oxide?
yKpoI14uk [10]

Answer:

55.85 grams of Fe is formed.

Explanation:

Identify the reaction:

2Fe₂O₃  +  3C  →  4Fe  +  3CO₂

Identify the limiting reactant, previously determine the mol of each reactant

(mass / molar mass)

10 g / 12 g/m = 0.83 moles C

80 g / 159.7 g /m = 0.500 moles Fe₂O₃

2 moles of oxide need 3 moles of C, to react

0.5 moles of oxide, will need ( 0.5  . 3)/ 2 = 0.751 mol

I have 0.83 moles of C, so C is the excess.

The limiting is the oxide.

3 mol of C need 2 mol of oxide to react

0.83 mol of C, will need (0.83  . 2)/ 3 = 0.553 mol of oxide, and I only have 0.5 (That's why Fe₂O₃ is the limiting)

Ratio is 2:4 (double)

If I have 0.5 moles of oxide, I will produce the double, in the reaction.

1 mol of Fe, will be produce so its mass is 55.85 g

Choose the best answer below. Which of the following reactions will have the largest equilibrium constant at 298 K?
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Relation between ΔG₀ and K ( equilibrium constant ) is as follows .

lnK =  -  ΔG₀ / RT

K = e^{-\frac{\triangle G_0}{RT}

The value of R and T are same for all reactions .

So higher the value of negative ΔG₀ , higher will be the value of K  .

Mg(s) + N₂0(g) → MgO(s) + N₂(g)

has the ΔG₀ value of -673 kJ which is highest negative value . So this reaction will have highest value of equilibrium constant K .
