6 Na + 1 Fe₂O₃ → 3 Na₂O + 6 Fe

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Method One: Refer to electron transfers.

Oxidation states:

  • Na: from 0 to +1; loses one electron.
  • Fe: from +3 to 0; gains three electrons.

Each mole of Fe₂O₃ contains two Fe atoms and will gain 2 × 3 = 6 electrons during the reaction. It takes 6 moles of Na to supply all those electrons.

6 Na + 1 Fe₂O₃ → ? Na₂O + ? Fe

  • There are two moles of Na atoms in each mole of Na₂O. 6 moles of Na will make 3 moles of Na₂O.
  • There are two moles of Fe atoms in each mole of Fe₂O₃. 1 mole of Fe₂O₃ will make 2 moles of Fe.

6 Na + 1 Fe₂O₃ → 3 Na₂O + 2 Fe

Method Two: Atoms conserve.

Fe₂O₃ has the largest number of atoms among one mole of all four species in this reaction. Assume <em>one</em> as its coefficient.

? Na + <em>1</em> Fe₂O₃ → ? Na₂O + ? Fe

There are two moles of Fe atoms and three moles of O atoms in each mol of Fe₂O₃. One mole of Fe₂O₃ contains two moles of Fe and three moles of O. There are one mole of O atom in every mole of Na₂O. Three moles of O will go to three moles of Na₂O.

? Na + <em>1</em> Fe₂O₃ → <em>3</em> Na₂O + <em>2</em> Fe

Each mole of Na₂O contains two moles of Na. Three moles of Na₂O will contain six moles of Na.

<em>6</em> Na + <em>1</em> Fe₂O₃ → <em>3</em> Na₂O + <em>2</em> Fe

Simplify the coefficients. All coefficients in this equation are now full number and relatively prime. Hence the equation is balanced.

6 Na + 1 Fe₂O₃ → 3 Na₂O + 2 Fe

Is melting point and boiling point chemical changes or physical changes?

Boiling water results in no chemical change. If water is just heated to its boiling temperature then there is a physical change.

What is the percentage of oxygen in Li(NO2)3
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

66.2 % of O

Explanation:

Our compound is the lithium nitrite.

LiNO₂

This salt is ionic and can be dissociated: LiNO₂ →  Li⁺ + NO₂⁻

We determine the molar mass:

molar mass of Li + 3 . molar mass of N + 6 . molar mass of O

6.94 g/mol + 3. 14 g/mol + 6 . 16 g/mol = 144.94 g/mol

The mass of oxygen contained in 1 mol of lithium nitrite is:

6 . 16 g/mol = 96 g

So the percentage of oxygen present is:

(96 g / 144.94 g) . 100 = 66.2 %

In the haber process, ammonia is synthesized from nitrogen and hydrogen: n2 (g) + 3h2 (g) → 2nh3 (g) δg° at 298 k for this react
allsm [11]

Answer:

e- 7.25 x 10³.

Explanation:

∵ ΔG = -RTlnK,

where, ΔG is the free energy change.

R is the general gas constant (R = 8.324 J/mol.K).

K is the equilibrium constant of the reaction.

  • For the reaction: <em>N₂(g) + 3H₂(g) → 2NH₃(g),</em>

K = (PNH₃)²/(PN₂)(PH₂)³ = (0.65)²/(1.9)(1.6)³ = 5.43 x 10⁻².

∵ ΔG = -RTlnK.

∴ ΔG = -(8.314 J/mol.K)(298 K) ln(5.43 x 10⁻²) = 7.218 x 10³ J/mol.

What type of bonds do compounds formed from non metal consist of?​
GuDViN [60]

Compounds formed from non-metals consist of molecules. The atoms in a molecule are joined together by covalent bonds. These bonds form when atoms share pairs of electrons.
