The reaction is given as
Fe2O3 (s)+ 3CO(g)--->3CO2(g)+ 2Fe(s)
No.of moles=mass in gram/molar mass
As for Fe mole =156.2g/55.847=2.7969~2.797
The ratio b/w CO and Fe is 3:2
Moles of CO needed= 2.797x3/2=4.1955
Mass of CO needed= 4.195mol x 28.01g/mol= 117.515g
Answer:
when the forward and reverse reactions occur at equal rates.
chemical reaction is in equilibrium when the concentrations of reactants and products are constant - their ratio does not vary.
It depends on the type of decay that is taking place if its a β+ it will decay into Mn-52 β- decays into Co-59
Half life is the time taken by a radioactive isotope to decay by half its original mass. In this case, the halflife of the radioactive isotope is 5000 years.
Initially the mass is 100 %; thus the mass that will be left will be given by;
New mass = Original mass × (1/2)^n where n is the number of half lives;
n = 10000/5000 = 2
New mass = 100% ×(1/2)^2
= 100 % × 1/4
= 25%
Therefore; the mass left after 10000 years is 25% or 1/4 of the original mass.
