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

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is 1.18 g.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given a chemical equation:

C(S)+O2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)

We know that at STP conditions:

22.4L of volume is occupied by 1 mole of a gas.

So, 2.21L of carbon dioxide is occupied by = \frac{1}{22.4L}\times 2.21L=0.0986mol of carbon dioxide gas.

By Stoichiometry of the above reaction:

1 mole of carbon dioxide gas is produced by 1 mole of carbon

So, 0.0986 moles of carbon dioxide is produced by = \frac{1}{1}\times 0.0986=0.0986mol of carbon.

Now, to calculate the mass of carbon, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Moles of carbon = 0.0986 mol

Molar mass of carbon = 12 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.0986mol=\frac{\text{Mass of carbon}}{12g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of carbon}=1.18g

Hence, the correct answer is 1.18 g.

Answer:

Explanation:

innermost part of the atom is: orange dots

outermost part of atom is:black dots

name of atom is  atomos, Figure 4.The symbol for an atom indicates the element via its usual two-letter symbol, the mass number as a left superscript, the atomic number as a left subscript (sometimes omitted), and the charge as a right superscript.

Atomic mass is defined as the number of protons and neutrons in an atom, where each proton and neutron has a mass of approximately 1 amu (1.0073 and 1.0087, respectively). The electrons within an atom are so miniscule compared to protons and neutrons that their mass is negligible.

The number fifteen in Angel numerology marks the manifestation of a harmonious life, a synthesis of matter and spirit. Angel number 15 refers to the material and spiritual, steady flow of energy, the source of power and cooperation.

In statistical testing, the p-value is the probability of obtaining test results at least as extreme as the results actually observed, under the assumption that the null hypothesis is correct. A very small p-value means that such an extreme observed outcome would be very unlikely under the null hypothesis.

Phosphorus is a chemical element with the symbol P and atomic number 15. Elemental phosphorus exists in two major forms, white phosphorus and red phosphorus, but because it is highly reactive, phosphorus is never found as a free element on Earth.

High MCH scores are commonly a sign of macrocytic anemia. This condition occurs when the blood cells are too big, which can be a result of not having enough vitamin B12 or folic acid in the body

The mass number tells us the number (the sum of nucleons) of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom. ... The atomic number uniquely identifies a chemical element. In an atom of neutral charge, atomic number is equal to the number of electrons.

number of protons = atomic number.

number of electrons = atomic number.

number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number.

stealth61 [152]
If the refrigerator has no room to cool the meat that you've just cooked, then you should clear it with other stuff or food that has not been consumed for days. There might be some goods that are not good for consumption anymore even though it has been placed in the ref for a couple of days. Hope this answers your question.
