Balance the equ. representing the reaction between iron

Chemistry
1 answer:
denis-greek [22]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Fe₂O₃ + 3 CO → 2 Fe + 3 CO₂

Explanation:

There are many ways to balance a chemical equation. In this case, I will show you the algebraic method:

The first step is assign a letter to each compound:

a Fe₂O₃ + b CO → c Fe + d CO₂

Then, you must write the balance equations for each atom, thus:

<em>Fe: 2a = c</em>

<em>C: b = d</em>

<em>O: 3a + b = 2d</em>

The last step is assign a value to a letter. I, for example, will say that <em>a is 1, </em>and then find the values for the others letters, thus:

<em>Fe: 2a = c </em>if <em>a=1; c=2</em>

<em>O: 3a + b = 2d </em>if <em>a=1 → 3+b = 2d</em>

As b = d → <em>3+d = 2d; 3 = 2d - d; </em>3=d and 3=b

Thus, the balanced equation is:

Fe₂O₃ + 3 CO → 2 Fe + 3 CO₂

I hope it helps!

What mass of KNO, will dissolve in 100 g of water at 100°C?
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

About 170-180 grams of potassium nitrate are completely dissolved in 100 g.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, according to the reported solubility data for potassium nitrate at different temperatures on the attached picture, it is possible to bear out that about 170-180 grams of potassium nitrate are completely dissolved in 100 g; considering that the solubility is the maximum amount of a solute that can be dissolved in a solvent, in this case water.

Best regards!

Estimate the standard internal energy of formation of liquid methyl acetate (methyl ethanoate, ch3cooch3) at 298 k from its stan
LenKa [72]

solution:

the reaction for formation of methyl acetate is\\CH_{3}OH+CH_{3}COOH----------->CH_{3}COOCH_{3}+H_{2}O\\standard internal energy \\\delta u=\delta H -\delta(pv)=\delta H -\delta n\times RT\\where \delta n=change in number of moles=0\\\delta u=\delta H\\=-442kj/mol
