Osmosis is the diffusion of water <span>across a semipermeable membrane (usually cell membrane) from a region of low solute concentration to a more concentrated solution so it can reach equilibrium (balance). 

D</span>iffusion is <span>a spontaneous movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

Both results in particles moving and help balance out the concentrations.
Also, in osmosis, the water molecules are moving. In diffusion, it is the solutes moving.

I hope this helps and explains well.</span>

b) If 1.5 mole of oxygen reacted, how many mole of iron (III) oxide would be formed from the reaction?
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

If there reacted 1.5 moles of O2, there will be produced 1.0 mol of Fe2O3

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Number of moles oxygen reacted = 1.5 moles

Step 2: The balanced equation

4Fe + 3O2 → 2Fe2O3

Step 3: Calculate moles of Fe2O3

For 4 moles Fe consumed, we need 3 moles of O2 to produce 2 moles of Fe2O3

For 1.5 moles O2 consumed, we'll have 2/3 * 1.5 = 1.0 mol of Fe2O3

If there reacted 1.5 moles of O2, there will be produced 1.0 mol of Fe2O3
