Answer:For Fe

Z=26

Explanation:

1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d6

Are there 26 electrons here? Why should there be 26?

So going back to the inert gas, argon ( Z=18 ), we get

[Ar] 4s2 3d6

Make sure to check your work by counting the electrons you have

In the reaction

NemiM [27]

Answer:

3 moles of CO are needed

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of CO used = ?

Mass of Fe produced = 112 g

Solution:

Chemical equation:

Fe₂O₃ + 3CO → 2Fe + 3CO₂

Number of moles of Fe:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 112 g/ 55.85 g/mol

Number of moles = 2.00 mol

Now we will compare the moles of iron and CO.

Fe : CO

2 : 3

Thus, 3 moles of CO are needed.

If 15 drops of ethanol from a medical dropper weight 0.60g, how many drops does it takes from a dropper to dispense 1.0ml of eth

Hoochie [10]

Answer : The number of drops it takes from a dropper to dispense 1.0 ml of ethanol is, 20 drops

Solution : Given,

Density of ethanol = 0.80 g/ml

Mass of ethanol = 0.60 g

First we have to calculate the volume of ethanol.

Formula used : $Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}$

$0.80g/ml=\frac{0.60g}{Volume}$

$Volume=\frac{0.60g}{0.80g/ml}=0.75ml$

The volume of ethanol is, 0.75 ml

Now we have to calculate the number of drops it takes from a dropper to dispense 1 ml of ethanol.

As, the number of drops in 0.75 ml of ethanol = 15

So, the number of drops in 1.0 ml of ethanol = $\frac{15}{0.75}\times 1.0=20$

Therefore, the number of drops it takes from a dropper to dispense 1.0 ml of ethanol is, 20 drops
