Answer:

The 2292 moles of CO are needed to react completely with 122 Kg of Fe₂O₃.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Fe₂O₃ = 122 Kg ( 122×1000 =  122000 g)

Moles of CO = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

Fe₂O₃ + 3CO  → 2Fe + 3CO₂

Number of moles of  Fe₂O₃:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 122000 g /159.69 g/mol

Number of moles = 764 mol

Now we will compare the moles of Fe₂O₃ with CO.

                               Fe₂O₃            :            CO  

                                  1                  :             3

                               764                :             3×764  =2292 mol

The 2292 moles of CO are needed to react completely with 122 Kg of Fe₂O₃.

Calculate the mass of water produced when 42 g of propane, c3h8, is burned with 115 g of oxygen
gavmur [86]
The balanced combustion reaction of propane, C₃H₈, is

C₃H₈ + 5 O₂ → 3 CO₂ + 4 H₂O

Molar mass of propane: 44 g/mol
Moles of propane = 42 g * (1 mol/44g) = 0.9545 mol propane

Molar mass of oxygen: 32 g/mol
Moles of oxygen = 115 g * (1 mol/32 g) = 3.594 mol oxygen

Moles of oxygen needed to completely react propane:
0.9545 mol propane * (5 mol O₂/1 mol propane) = 4.7725 mol oxygen

Since the available oxygen is only 3.594 moles and propane needs 4.7725 moles, that means oxygen is our limiting reactant. We base the amount of water produced here.

Molar mass of water: 18 g/mol
Mass of water produced = 3.594 mol O₂ * (4 mol H₂O/5 mol O₂) * (18 g/mol)
Mass of water produced = 258.768 grams

Mass can be created and destroyed.
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

Conservation of Energy and Mass

The law of conservation of mass states that in a chemical reaction mass is neither created nor destroyed. ... Similarly, the law of conservation of energy states that the amount of energy is neither created nor destroyed.
