Answer: The coefficient for the diatomic oxygen (O2) is 3.
Explanation:
To know the coefficient for the diatomic Oxygen, we need to balance the equation.
Fe + O2 -------> Fe2O3
LHS of the equation; Fe = 1 , O2 = 1
RHS of the equation; Fe = 2 , O = 3
∴ Multiply 'Fe' on the LHS of the equation by 4 and O2 by 3
Doing that will give the balance equation which is;
4 Fe + 3 O2 --------> 2 Fe2O3
The coefficient for the diatomic oxygen (O2) as seen from the equation is 3.

4NH3+ 5O2 -------> 4NO + 6H2O </span>
(i) We start by calculating the mass of sugar in the solution:
mass of sugar = concentration × solution mass
mass of sugar = 2.5/100 × 500 = 12.5 g
Then now we can calculate the amount of water:
solution mass = mass of sugar + mass of water
mass of water = solution mass - mass of sugar
mass of water = 500 - 12.5 = 487.5 g
(ii) We use the following reasoning:
If 500 g solution contains 12.5 g sugar
Then X g solution contains 75 g sugar
X=(500×75)/12.5 = 3000 g solution
Now to get the amount of solution in liters we use density (we assume that is equal to 1):
Density = mass / volume
Volume = mass / density
Volume = 3000 / 1 = 3000 liters of sugar solution
Temperature decreases (?)
