<h3>Answer:</h3>

Balanced equation: 4Fe + 3O₂ → 2Fe₂O₃

Moles of oxygen gas = 9 moles

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

To answer the question;

  • We first write the balanced equation between iron metal and Oxygen
  • The balanced equation is given as;

4Fe + 3O₂ → 2Fe₂O₃

  • We are given 6 moles of Fe₂O₃

We are required to determine the number of moles of oxygen needed to form 6 moles of Fe₂O₃.

  • From the equation, 3 moles of oxygen gas reacts to produce 2 moles of Fe₂O₃
  • This means, the mole ratio of O₂ to Fe₂O₃ is 3 : 2

Therefore; Moles of O₂ = Moles of Fe₂O₃ × 3/2

Hence, moles of oxygen = 6 moles × 3/2

                                         = 9 moles

Thus, Moles of Oxygen needed is 9 moles

Consider the following system at equilibrium:
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

A - Increase (R), Decrease (P), Decrease(q), Triple both (Q) and (R)

B - Increase(P), Increase(q), Decrease (R)

C - Triple (P) and reduce (q) to one third

Explanation:

<em>According to Le Chatelier principle, when a system is in equilibrium and one of the constraints that affect the rate of reaction is applied, the equilibrium will shift so as to annul the effects of the constraint.</em>

P and Q are reactants, an increase in either or both without an equally measurable increase in R (a product) will shift the equilibrium to the right. Also, any decrease in R without a corresponding decrease in either or both of P and Q will shift the equilibrium to the right. Hence, Increase(P), Increase(q), and Decrease (R) will shift the equilibrium to the right.

In the same vein, any increase in R without a corresponding increase in P and Q will shift the equilibrium to the left. The same goes for any decrease in either or both of P and Q without a counter-decrease in R will shift the equilibrium to the left. Hence, Increase (R), Decrease (P), Decrease(q), and Triple both (Q) and (R) will shift the equilibrium to the left.

Any increase or decrease in P with a commensurable decrease or increase in Q (or vice versa) with R remaining constant will create no shift in the equilibrium. Hence, Triple (P) and reduce (q) to one third will create no shift in the equilibrium.
