Answer:

The answer to your question is 160 g of Fe₂O₃

Explanation:

Data

mass of Fe = 112 g

mass of CO = in excess

mass of Fe₂O₃ = ?

Balanced chemical reaction

Fe₂O₃ + 3CO ⇒ 2Fe + 3CO₂

Process

1.- Calculate the molar mass of Fe₂O₃ and Fe

Molar mass Fe₂O₃ = (56 x 2) + (16 x 3) = 112 + 48 = 160 g

atomic mass of Fe = 56

2.- Use proportions to calculate the mass of Fe₂O₃ needed

160 g of Fe₂O₃ ------------------- 2(56) g of Fe

x g of Fe₂O₃ ------------------ 112 g of Fe

x = (112 x 160) / 2(56)

x = 17920/112

x = 160 g of Fe₂O₃

At the Henry's Law constant for carbon dioxide gas in water is . Calculate the mass in grams of gas that can be dissolved in of

Dvinal [7]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

At 25°C Henry's Law constant for carbon dioxide gas in water is 0.031 M/atm . Calculate the mass in grams of gas that can be dissolved in 425. mL of water at 25°C and at a partial pressure of 2.92 atm. Round your answer to 2 significant digits.

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of carbon dioxide that can be dissolved is 1.7 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the molar solubility, we use the equation given by Henry's law, which is:

$C_{CO_2}=K_H\times p_{CO_2}$

where,

$K_H$ = Henry's constant = $0.031M/atm$

$C_{CO_2}$ = molar solubility of carbon dioxide gas

$p_{CO_2}$ = partial pressure of carbon dioxide gas = 2.92 atm

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$C_{CO_2}=0.031M/atm\times 2.92 atm\\\\C_{CO_2}=0.0905M$

To calculate the mass of solute, we use the equation used to calculate the molarity of solution:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$

Given mass of carbon dioxide = ? g

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44 g/mol

Molarity of solution = $0.0905mol/L$

Volume of solution = 425 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.0905mol/L=\frac{\text{Mass of carbon dioxide}\times 1000}{44g/mol\times 425}\\\\\text{Mass of solute}=\frac{44\times 425\times 0.0905}{1000}=1.7g$

Hence, the mass of carbon dioxide that can be dissolved is 1.7 grams

Given 1kg=2.20 lbs, how many kilograms are in 125 lbs?<br> (Metric conversion)

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

56.82 Kg

Explanation:

Given data:

1 Kg = 2.20 lbs

Number of kilogram in 125 lbs = ?

Solution:

lbs is used for pound. lb is abbreviation of libra. It is Latin word meaning balance.

Both kilogram and pounds are units of mass. Pound is smaller unit than kilogram.

one Kg = 2.20 lbs

Number of kg in 125 lbs:

125 lbs × 1 Kg/2.20 lbs

125 lbs.Kg/2.20 lbs

56.82 Kg

Which electron configuration represents the electrons of an atom in an excited state? * 2-3 2-7-1 2-8 2-8-1

Lemur [1.5K]

2-7-1

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Electrons can move the shell up or down by releasing energy or absorbing energy

Excited electrons show higher electron transfer to the shell by absorbing energy

So it can be concluded that there are 2 conditions:

Ground state is the state of electrons filling shell with the lowest energy levels.

Excited state is the state of electrons which occupies a higher energy level

The state of excited electrons can be seen from the presence of electrons which do not fill the skin completely but fill the skin afterward

2-7-1

From its 8 electron configuration, filling 3 shells, 2 electrons in the firs shell, 7 electrons in the second shell and 1 electron in the third shell

the electrons in the third shell should fill the electrons in the second shell first according to Aufbau rule (lower energy shells)

$\tt 1s^22s^22p^4\rightarrow ground~state\\\\1s^22s^22p^33s^1\rightarrow excited~state$
