The average human body contains 5.00 L of blood with a Fe2+ concentration of 1.10×10−5 M . If a person ingests 9.00 mL of 21.0 m

M NaCN, what percentage of iron(II) in the blood would be sequestered by the cyanide ion?

Answer:

The  percentage is    % Fe^{2+   = 57.3%

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

       The volume of blood in the human body  is  V  =  5.0 0 \ L

       The  concentration of  Fe^{2+ is  C_{F} =  1.10 *10^{-5} \ M

        The volume  of  NaCN  ingested is  V_N =  9.00 \ mL  =  9.00 *10^{-3} \ L

       The concentration of  NaCN ingested is  C_N  =  21.0 \ mM  =  21.0 *10^{-3} \  M

The  number of moles of   Fe^{2+ in the blood is  

                    N_F  =  C_F  *  V

substituting values  

                    N_F  =   1.10 *10^{-5}  *  5

                    N_F  = 5.5*10^{-5} \ mols

The  number of moles of  CN^{-} ingested is  mathematically evaluated as

           N_C  =  C_N *  V_N

substituting values    

          N_C  =   21*10^{-3}  *  9 *10^{-3}

          N_C  =   1.89 *10^{-4} \  mols

The balanced chemical equation for the reaction  between   Fe^{2+ and   CN^{-}  is  represented as

          Fe^{2+} +  6 CN^{-} \to  [Fe(CN)_6]^{2-}

From this  reaction we see that  

         1 mole  of    Fe^{2+  will react with 6  moles of  CN^{-}

=>         x  moles of  Fe^{2+ will react with   1.89 *10^{-4} \  moles of  CN^{-}

Thus  

         x =  \frac{1.89 *10^{-4}  *  1}{6}

        x =  3.15 *10^{-5}

Hence the percentage  of  Fe^{2+  that reacted is  mathematically evaluated as

       

       %  Fe^{2+   = \frac{3.15 *10^{-5}}{5.5*10^{-5}}  * 100

        %  Fe^{2+   = 57.3%

If I did this correctly the balanced equation would be:
14H⁺+Cr₂O₇²⁻+6I⁻→3I₂+2Cr³⁺+7H₂O

oxidation half: (iodide was oxidized)
2I⁻→I₂+2e⁻

reduction half: (chromium was reduced)
14H⁺+Cr₂O₇²⁻+6e⁻→2Cr³⁺+7H₂O

H⁺ comes from the solution.  It is in the final reaction since in redox reactions the oxygen is turned into water since it can't just go away.  I multiplied the oxidation half reaction by 3 in order for both half reactions to half the same number of electrons since equal numbers of electrons need to be lost and gained for the reaction to be balanced.

I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.

B will make little difference to reaction rate while C and D will reduce the reaction rate. So the answer is A. adding heat energy to the reactants .
