Use the chart to help you look carefully at the numbers and the volumes to figure the questions out hope this helps
The columns of the periodic table, also referred to as "groups" contain elements with similar reactive properties, due to these elements having a similar configuration of electrons in their outer shell.
Hydrogen and Oxygen by themselves have 1 and 6 valence electrons, respectively. 8 valence electrons is stable, so the atoms form bonds with each other to achieve 8 valence e-.
1 H atom + 1 H atom + 1 O atom = 8 valence e-

Answer:</h3>
Balanced equation: 4Fe + 3O₂ → 2Fe₂O₃
Moles of oxygen gas = 9 moles
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
To answer the question;
- We first write the balanced equation between iron metal and Oxygen
- The balanced equation is given as;
4Fe + 3O₂ → 2Fe₂O₃
- We are given 6 moles of Fe₂O₃
We are required to determine the number of moles of oxygen needed to form 6 moles of Fe₂O₃.
- From the equation, 3 moles of oxygen gas reacts to produce 2 moles of Fe₂O₃
- This means, the mole ratio of O₂ to Fe₂O₃ is 3 : 2
Therefore; Moles of O₂ = Moles of Fe₂O₃ × 3/2
Hence, moles of oxygen = 6 moles × 3/2
= 9 moles
Thus, Moles of Oxygen needed is 9 moles
