The balanced equation is Fe_{2} O_{3}  + 3CO ---> 2Fe + 3CO_{2}

<u>Explanation</u>:

                        Fe_{2} O_{3}  + 3CO ---> 2Fe + 3CO_{2}

  • For solving this first of all you figure out the formula of iron(3)oxide so you look at the periodic table as you said valency of iron is 3 positive because metals are always positive and oxygen’s valency is 2 (negative because non-metal). You criss-cross both you take 2 from oxygen and put it under the iron and then 3 from iron under oxygen.
  • Valency is the number of electrons needed to be a noble gas.   Oxygen has 6 electrons in the outer shell and it needs 2 more to become noble gas.   The total number of electrons needed in every shell is 8 so to figure out valency you subtract the number of electrons in the outer shell from 8. Valency also shows how many electrons you need to share for bonding.

5. calculate the percentage of water of crystallization in blue vitriol (copper sulphate pentahydrate), cuso4.5h2o
ki77a [65]

The percentage of water of crystallization in blue vitriol is 36.07%.

M(H₂O) = 2Ar(H) + Ar(O) x g/mol

M(H₂O) = 2 + 16 x g/mol

M(H₂O) = 18 g/mol; molar mass of water

M(CuSO₄·5H₂O) = Ar(Cu) + Ar(S) + 4Ar(O) + 5Mr(H₂O) x g/mol

M(CuSO₄·5H₂O) = 63.5 + 32 + 64 + 90 x g/mol

M(CuSO₄·5H₂O) = 249.5 g/mol; molar mass of copper sulphate pentahydrate

The percentage of water: 5M(H₂O) / M(CuSO₄·5H₂O) x 100%

The percentage of water: 90 g/mol / 249.5 g/mol x 100%

The percentage of water = 36.07%

How many electrons in an atom can have the following quantum
gavmur [86]

The answer for the following question is explained.

<u><em>Therefore the  number of electrons present with the values n = 5, l = 2, m = -2, s = +1/2 is</em></u><u> </u><u><em>one(1).</em></u>

Explanation:

Here;

n represents the principal quantum number

l represents the Azimuthal quantum number

m represents magnetic quantum number

s represents spin quantum number

n = 5,

l = 2,

m = -2,

s = +1/2

Here, it implies 5d orbital.

In the  5d  orbital, 10 electrons.

As the magnetic quantum number is -2, and so it can have 1 electron.

<u><em>Therefore the  number of electrons present with the values n = 5, l = 2, m = -2, s = +1/2 is</em></u><u> </u><u><em>one(1)</em></u>
