Answer:

122.3 g of Fe₂O₃ is the maximum amount formed

Explanation:

Our reactants for the reaction:

89.5 g of Fe

36.9 g of O₂

We convert the mass of each to moles:

89.5 g of Fe . 1 mol / 55.85 g = 1.60 moles

36.9 g of O₂ . 1mol / 32g = 1.15 moles

The reaction is  4Fe(s) + 3O₂(g) →  2Fe₂O₃ (s)

We determine the limiting reactant:

4 moles of Iron can react with 3 moles of O₂

Therefore 1.60 moles of Iron will react with (1.60 .3) / 4 = 1.2 moles

Oxygen is the limiting reactant; we need 1.2 moles, and we only have 1.15.

Then we work with the stoichiometry again.

3 moles of oxygen can produce 2 moles of Fe₂O₃

1.15 moles of oxygen may produce (1.15 . 2) / 3 = 0.766 moles of Fe₂O₃

We convert the moles to mass: 0.766 mol . 159.7 g /1mol = 122.3 g of Fe₂O₃
