Rust is iron oxide, the corrosion product of iron when exposed to the oxygen in the air. Tin is not iron, so you cannot produce iron oxide from the corrosion of tin. Because the layer of tin on the surface of the steel prevents atmospheric oxygen and moisture from contacting the steel.

a 1.25g sample of ore containing iron pyrite (FeS2) was pulverized and ignited in air, converting the FeS2 to Fe2O3 and SO2(g).
svp [43]

Answer:

28.9%

Explanation:

Let's consider the following balanced equation.

2 FeS₂ + 11/2 O₂ ⇒ Fe₂O₃ + 4 SO₂

We can establish the following relations:

  • The molar mass of Fe₂O₃ is 159.6 g/mol
  • 1 mole of Fe₂O₃ is produced per 2 moles of FeS₂
  • 1 mole of Fe is in 1 mole of FeS₂
  • The molar mass of Fe is 55.84 g/mol

The amount of Fe in the sample that produced 0.516 g of Fe₂O₃ is:

0.516gFe_{2}O_{3}.\frac{1molFe_{2}O_{3}}{159.6gFe_{2}O_{3}} .\frac{2molFeS_{2}}{1molFe_{2}O_{3}} .\frac{1molFe}{1molFeS_{2}} .\frac{55.84gFe}{1molFe} =0.361gFe

The percent of Fe in 1.25 g of the ore is:

\frac{0.361g}{1.25g} .100\%=28.9\%
