It is a physical change because you can not put it back like it was
The balanced equation is Fe₂O₃ + 3 CO = 2 Fe + 3 CO₂.
Next step is to convert everything to moles.
12.6g Fe₂O₃ x (1 mol Fe₂O₃ / 159.7g Fe₂O₃) = 0.07890 mol Fe₂O₃
9.65g CO x (1 mol CO / 28.01g CO) = 0.3445 mol CO
The third step is to determine the limiting and excess reactants.
0.07890 mol Fe₂O₃ x (3 mol CO/1 mol Fe₂O₃) = 0.2367 mol CO
Therefore Fe₂O₃ is the limiting reagent while CO is in excess.
0.07890 mol Fe x (2 mol Fe(s) / 1 mol Fe₂O₃) = 0.1578 mol Fe(s)
0.1578 mol Fe x (55.84g Fe / mole Fe) = 8.812g Fe is the theoretical yield
%yield = (7.23g / 8.812g) x 100% = 82.0% is the percent yield
Mass of solute ( m1 ) = 50.0 g
mass of solvent ( m2 ) = 150.0 g
Therefore:
m/m = ( m1 / m1 + m2 )
m/m = ( 50.0 / 50.0 + 150.0 )
m/m = ( 50.0 / 200 )
m/m = 0.25
It is the electron sharing.
electronegative element + electronegative element
exemple :
O₂ , H₂
hope this helps!
