Answer: Mass of
produced in this reaction was 6.56 grams
Explanation:
According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

Mass or reactants = Mass of
+ mass of
= 16.00 + 64.80 = 80.80 g
Mass of products = mass of aqueous solution + mass of
+ = 74.24 + x g
Mass or reactants = Mass of products
80.80 g = 74.24 + x g
x = 6.56 g
Thus mass of
produced in this reaction was 6.56 grams
Answer:For Fe
Z=26
Explanation:
1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s2 3d6
Are there 26 electrons here? Why should there be 26?
So going back to the inert gas, argon ( Z=18 ), we get
[Ar] 4s2 3d6
Make sure to check your work by counting the electrons you have
