<span>8.73 grams CO
   The balanced equation for the reaction is
3CO + Fe2O3 ==> 2Fe + 3CO2
   So for every 2 atoms of Fe produced, 3 molecules of CO is needed. So let's start by looking up the atomic weights of the involved elements:
 Atomic weight iron = 55.845
  Atomic weight carbon = 12.0107 
  Atomic weight oxygen = 15.999
   Molar mass CO = 12.0107 + 15.999 = 28.0097 g/mol
 Moles iron = 11.6 g / 55.845 g/mol = 0.20771779 mol
   Moles CO needed = 0.20771779 mol / 2 * 3 = 0.311576685 mol
 Mass CO needed = 0.311576685 mol * 28.0097 g/mol = 8.727169487 g Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 8.73 grams CO</span>

Why are numbers not used to designate the position of the functional group in propanone and butanedione?
Sholpan [36]
The reason for this is that <span>these two ketones are so small that they have only one possible ketone. So the number is usually omitted. Normally the ketone group needs a number but these two are exceptions</span>

Why is the cell theory so important??
Kamila [148]

Answer:

yes

Explanation:

The cell theory states that all biological organisms are composed of cells; cells are the unit of life and all life come from preexisting life. The cell theory is so established today that it forms one of the unifying principles of biology.

After the reaction between sodium borohydride and the ketone is complete, the reaction mixture is treated with water and H2SO4 t
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

The hydrogen can be gotten from the added Acid or water during "workup".

Explanation:

Basically we can say that the reaction describe in this question is a Reduction reaction because of the chemical compound called sodium borohydride. In the reaction described above we can see that there is a Reduction of ketone to alcohol by the compound; sodium borohydride.

For the reduction Reaction to occur the C-O bond must break so as to enable the formation of O-H bond and C-H bond.

So, "the reaction mixture is treated with water and H2SO4 to produce the desired alcohol", thus, the oxygen will definitely pick up the hydrogen from H2SO4 or H2O.
