Your reaction
.. Fe + O2 ---> FexOy
for this reaction..
.. the Fe on the left is in the 0 oxidation state
.. the Fe on the right is in the +(2y/x) oxidation state
.. the O on the left is in the 0 oxidation state
.. the O on the right is in the -2 oxidation state
meaning
.. the O is reduced... . . (it's reduced in oxidation state)
.. the Fe is oxidized.. . .(oxidation state increased)
this is a REDOX reaction
*********
AND.. it's also a synthesis reaction.. (aka combination reaction)
Liquids have free and fast moving particles. Liquids do not take a specific shape unless they are enclosed such as in a bottle. Anyway, since they are free flowing when they freeze, their movement becomes very slow. Eventually the particles will not have room to move as they used to and will be held in one place. The particles are still moving but they are only shaking or vibrating in the same place. You can't even tell this movement is happening, and that is what happens when liquid freezes.
From the calculation, the moles of water produced is 18 moles of water.
<h3>What is a decomposition reaction?</h3>
A decomposition reaction is one in which a substance is split up into smaller parts.
We have the reaction; 2 Cr(OH)3(aq) ------------> Cr2O3(s) + 3H2O(l)
From this reaction;
2 moles of Cr(OH)3 produced 3 moles of water
12 moles of Cr(OH)3 will produce;
12 moles * 3 moles / 2moles
= 18 moles of water
Hence, 12 moles of chromium (III) hydroxide produces 18 moles of water.
