If 4000 g of Fe2O3 reacts, how many moles of CO are needed? (add work)

Chemistry
1 answer:
7nadin3 [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

75.15 mol.

Explanation:

  • Firstly, we need to write the balanced equation of the reaction:

<em>Fe₂O₃ + 3CO → 2Fe + 3CO₂.</em>

It is clear that 1.0 mole of Fe₂O₃ reacts with 3.0 moles of CO to produce 2.0 moles of Fe and 3.0 moles of CO₂.

∴ Fe₂O₃ reacts with CO with (1: 3) molar ratio.

  • we need to calculate the no. of moles of (4000 g) of Fe₂O₃:

<em>no. of moles of Fe₂O₃ = mass/molar mass</em> = (4000 g)/(159.69 g/mol) = <em>25.05 mol.</em>

<u>Using cross multiplication:</u>

1.0 mole of Fe₂O₃ needs → 3.0 moles of CO,

∴ 25.05 mole of Fe₂O₃ needs → ??? moles of CO.

<em>∴ The no. of moles of CO needed</em> = (3.0 mol)(25.05 mol)/(1.0 mol) =<em> 75.15 mol.</em>

One of the basic building blocks of matter, which cannot be broken down by chemical means is a(n)______ , of which there are 92
Nadusha1986 [10]

One of the basic building blocks of matter, which cannot be broken down by chemical means is an element.

The first chemical element is hydrogen (atomic number is 1) and the last is oganesson (atomic number is 118).

Elements are scheduled in Periodic table, ordered by their atomic number.

Other example, krypton is a chemical element with symbol Kr and atomic number 36.

Krypton has 36 electron and 36. It is noble gas (group 18).

Noble gases are in group 18: helium (He), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe) and radon (Rn). They have very low chemical reactivity.

Write electron configurations for Gallium, Ga (Z=31), and show the total valence electrons
ivann1987 [24]

<u>Answer:</u> The electronic configuration of gallium is written below and number of valence electrons is 3.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Electronic configuration is defined as the representation of electrons around the nucleus of an atom.

Number of electrons in an atom is determined by the atomic number of that atom.

Valence electrons are defined as the electrons present in the outermost shell of an atom.

We are given:

An element Gallium having atomic number as 31.

Number of electrons = 31

Electronic configuration of Gallium is: (Z=31):1s^22s^22p^63s^23p^64s^23d^{10}4p^1

This element has 3 electrons in its outermost shell. So, the number of valence electrons is 3

Hence, the electronic configuration of gallium is written below and number of valence electrons is 3.

How is it possible for there to be more than one kind of atom of the same element?
tiny-mole [99]

They are called isotopes.

Isotopes have the same number of electrons and protons in their unionized state. They differ in the number of neutrons. The first and simplest example is hydrogen.


The most common hydrogen has

1 proton

1 electron and

0 neutrons


It has 2 cousins

1 proton

1 electron

1 neutron

And

1 proton

1 electron

2 neutrons.


Most elements have some differences in the number of neutrons present in their nuclei. Cesium and Xenon have the most number of isotopes. Each has 36. You wonder how the atoms are held together.
