One of the reactions that occurs in a blast furnace, in which iron ore is converted to cast iron, is Fe2O3 + 3CO → 2Fe + 3CO2 Su

ppose that 1.79 × 103 kg of Fe is obtained from a 2.86 × 103 kg sample of Fe2O3. Assuming that the reaction goes to completion, what is the percent purity of Fe2O3 in the original sample?

Answer : The percent purity of Fe_2O_3 in the original sample is 87.94 %

Explanation :

The given balanced chemical reaction is:

Fe_2O3+3CO\rightarrow 2Fe+3CO_2

First we have to calculate the mass of Fe.

\text{Moles of }Fe=\frac{\text{Mass of }Fe}{\text{Molar mass of }Fe}

Molar mass of Fe = 55.8 g/mole

\text{Moles of }Fe=\frac{1.79\times 10^3kg}{55.8g/mole}=\frac{1.79\times 10^3\times 1000g}{55.8g/mole}=3.15\times 10^4mole

Now we have to calculate the moles of Fe_2O_3

From the balanced chemical reaction we conclude that,

As, 2 moles of Fe produced from 1 mole of Fe_2O_3

So, 3.15\times 10^4mole of Fe produced from \frac{3.15\times 10^4}{2}=15750 mole of Fe_2O_3

Now we have to calculate the mass of Fe_2O_3

\text{ Mass of }Fe_2O_3=\text{ Moles of }Fe_2O_3\times \text{ Molar mass of }Fe_2O_3

Molar mass of Fe_2O_3 = 159.69 g/mole

\text{ Mass of }Fe_2O_3=(15750moles)\times (159.69g/mole)=2.515\times 10^6g=2.515\times 10^3kg

Now we have to calculate the percent purity of Fe_2O_3 in the original sample.

Mass of original sample = 2.86\times 10^3kg

\text{Percent purity}=\frac{\text{Mass of }Fe_2O_3}{\text{Mass of sample}}\times 100

\text{Percent purity}=\frac{2.515\times 10^3kg}{2.86\times 10^3kg}\times 100=87.94\%

Therefore, the percent purity of Fe_2O_3 in the original sample is 87.94 %

You react 2.33 g of iron (III) chloride with 50.0 mL of 0.500 M solution of sodium phosphate to
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

2.33g of iron (iii) chloride

50.0 mL of 5.00 M of sodium phosphate

FeCl3 + Na3PO4 > Fe(PO4) + 3NaCl

mol = conc × vol = 0.5 × 50/1000 = 0.025 mol Na3PO4

from the equation:

1 mol of Na3PO4 reacts with 1 mol FeCl3 = 3 mol of NaCl

0.025 mol = x

x = 0.0025 × 3 = 0.075 mol NaCl

mass = 0.075 g × 59 g/mol = 4.425 g NaCl

i guessed all of this so i dont know i it is correct

When calculating the equilibrium constant, aqueous solutes must be expressed in moles per liter (M), and gases must be expressed
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

B. They are dimensionless ratios of the actual concentration or pressure divided by standard state concentration, which is 1 M for solutions and 1 bar for gases.

Explanation:

Activity of a substance is defined as the ratio of an effective concentration or an effective pressure to a standard state pressure or a standard state pressure. It is usually a unit less ratio.

Concentrations in an equilibrium constant are really dimensionless ratios of actual concentrations divided by standard state concentrations. Since standard states are 1 M for solutes, 1 bar for gases, and pure substances for solids and liquids, these are the units to be used.

Hence, activity is a fudge factor to ideal solutions that correct the true concentration. Activity of a gas and solute concentration is a ratio with no unit.
