Answer:

Mass of Fe produced = 3.86785211069  ≈ 3.87 kg

Explanation:

From the question the chemical reaction can be written as follow :

Fe2O3 + C → Fe + CO  

Balance the equation

Fe2O3 + 3C → 2Fe + 3CO  

compute the molecular mass of Fe2O3 and atomic mass of Iron(Fe)

Molecular mass of Fe2O3 = 55.845(2) + 15.999(3) = 111.69 + 47.997 = 159.687 g

Atomic mass of iron = 55.845 g

From the balanced equation

159.687 g of Fe2O3  produces 2 ×  55.845 = 111.69 g of Fe(iron)

Convert the 5.53 kg to gram

1 kg = 1000 g

5.53 kg  = 5.53 × 1000 = 5530 g

since,

159.687 g of Fe2O3  produces 2 ×  55.845 = 111.69 g of Iron(Fe)

5530 g of  Fe2O3  will produce  

cross multiply

Mass of Fe produced =5530 × 111.69/159.687

Mass of Fe produced = 617645.7

/159.687

Mass of Fe produced = 3867.85211069  g

convert to kg

1000 g = 1 kg

3867.85211069   = 3867.85211069/1000

Mass of Fe produced = 3.86785211069  ≈ 3.87 kg

if you are told to get 100 mL of stock solution to use to prepare smaller size sample for an experiment, which piece of glasswar
fgiga [73]

Answer:

A beaker  

Step-by-step explanation:

Specifically, I would use a 250 mL graduated beaker.

A beaker is appropriate to measure 100 mL of stock solution, because it's easy to pour into itscwide mouth from a large stock bottle.

You don't need precisely 100 mL solution.

If the beaker is graduated, you can easily measure 100 mL of the stock solution.

Even if it isn't graduated, 100 mL is just under half the volume of the beaker, and that should be good enough for your purposes (you will be using more precise measuring tools during the experiment).

Calculate the number of kg in 7.66 x 10-5 Gigagrams.
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

76,6 kg

Explanation:

A kg it's equal to 1x10^3 grams

A Gigagrams it's equal to 1x10^9 grams

Knowing this, a kg it's equal to 1x10^6 gigagrams

7,66*10^{-5}[gigagram]*\frac{1*10^6 [kg]}{1 [gigagram]}= 76.6 [kg]
