The nails can puncture the tires of the vehicles making them deflated after a while. The process of tire deflation due to a puncture is due to the process called an effusion. Thus, option c is correct.
<h3>What is effusion?</h3>
Effusion is the process that defines the escape of the fluids or gases from a system through an outlet with a small diameter compared to the mean free path of the molecules.
When a tire is punctured then the gas from the tire starts to move out through the hole through effusion. This leads to deflation of the tire after some time as all the gas present inside had moved out completely.
Therefore, option c. a punctured tire deflates due to effusion.

Moles = 15.5 g / 40 g/mol = 0.3875 mol
M = 0.3875 mol / 0.250 L = 1.55M

First, determine the molar masses involved:
Atomic weight iron = 55.845
Atomic weight carbon = 12.0107
Atomic weight oxygen = 15.999
Molar mass Fe2O3 = 2 * 55.845 + 3 * 15.999 = 159.687 g/mol
Molar mass CO = 12.0107 + 15.999 = 28.0097 g/mol
Determine how many moles of each reactant we have
Moles Fe2O3 = 189 g / 159.687 g/mol = 1.18356535 mol
Moles CO = 63.0 g / 28.0097 g/mol = 2.249220806 mol
For every mole of Fe2O3, we need 3 moles of CO. So let's see how many moles of Fe2O3 is consumed by dividing moles CO by 3.
2.249220806 mol / 3 = 0.749740269 mol
So we'll be consuming 0.749740269 moles of Fe2O3, subtract that from what we started with
1.18356535 mol - 0.749740269 mol = 0.433825081 mol
Now multiply by the molar mass of Fe2O3
0.433825081 mol * 159.687 g/mol = 69.27622574 g
Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 69.3 g</span>
