Answer: The correct answer is Option B.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the formula:

Moles=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

  • <u>Moles of Iron</u>

Molar mass of iron = 55.8 g/mol

Given mass of iron = 558.8

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Moles=\frac{55.8g}{55.8g/mol}=1mole

For the given chemical equation:

4Fe(s)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3(s)

By Stoichiometry,

4 moles of Iron produces 2 moles of Iron(III) oxide

So, 1 mole of Ion will produce = \frac{2}{4}\times 1 = 0.5 mole of Iron (III) oxide.

Hence, the correct answer is Option B.

What is the pH of a solution with an H3O+ concentration of 5.67 x 10-4 M?
Valentin [98]

Answer:

<h2>3.25 </h2>

Explanation:

The pH of a solution can be found by using the formula

pH = - log [ { H_3O}^{+}]

From the question we have

ph =  -  log(5.67 \times  {10}^{ - 4} )  \\  = 3.2464

We have the final answer as

<h3>3.25 </h3>

What is the sign of enthalpy change for (a), an endothermic reaction? (b). an exothermic reaction?
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

The answer is: (a) positive; (b) negative.

Explanation:

The change in enthalpy (ΔH) of a reaction is the amount of energy absorbed or released during a chemical reaction carried out at constant pressure.

a) In an endothermic chemical reaction, heat energy is absorbed by the system from the surrounding. Therefore, the sign of enthalpy change for an endothermic process is positive, ΔH= positive.

b) In an exothermic chemical reaction, heat energy is released by the system into the surrounding. Therefore, the sign of enthalpy change for an exothermic process is negative, ΔH= negative.

The reaction below was carried out in an acidic solution. upper i minus, plus upper i upper o minus subscript 3 right arrow uppe
maria [59]

The reaction is an unbalanced redox reaction hence, the reaction  can be balanced by using the half-reaction method.

<h3>What is a redox reaction?</h3>

The term redox reaction refers to the reactionnin which electrons are transferred hence one specie is oxidized while the other specie is reduced.

Looking at the reation as shown, we can see that the reaction is an unbalanced redox reaction hence, the reaction  can be balanced by using the half-reaction method.

The reactivity of metals on the periodic table
kari74 [83]

Explanation:

The most reactive metals are found on the left of the periodic table, in the blue column, known as the alkali metals. Their reactivity increases as we go down column (group) one. Reactive metals, when attached to less reactive metals, have the ability to prevent the less reactive metal from rusting.
