Answer:
The equation is Fe₂O₃ + CO ⇒ Fe + CO₂.
The balanced reaction equation is Fe₂O₃ + 3CO ⇒ 2Fe + 3CO₂.
Explanation:
First, we have to write our equation. It's actually pretty straightforward - first we look for our reactants (looks like it's Fe₂O₃ and CO), then we look for our products (Fe and CO₂). Then, we have to balance it so that both sides have the same number of both element.
Currently, we have the equation Fe₂O₃ + CO ⇒ Fe + CO₂. There are 2 Fe atoms, 4 O atoms, and 1 C atom on the left side. There is 1 Fe atom, 2 O atoms, and 1 C atom on the right side.
First thing we can do is give our Fe on the right side a coefficient of 2. This will make it equivalent to the 2 Fe atoms on the left side:
Fe₂O₃ + CO ⇒ 2Fe + CO₂
Next, we need to make sure that we have the same number of C and O atoms on each side. This takes a little bit of thinking, but what we have to do is give CO a coefficient of 3 and CO₂ a coefficient of 3. This gives us 6 O atoms on the left side (when we include the O₃) and 6 O atoms on the right side (since there are 3 O₂ atoms and 3 times 2 is 6). Here's what that looks like:
Fe₂O₃ + 3CO ⇒ 2Fe + 3CO₂
And that's how I balanced the equation. It can be confusing, but with enough practice, it will get easier and easier. :)
You would convert the cg to g. 1.66 cg is 0.0166 g. then you add. 0.398 + 0.0166 = 0.4146. the answer is 0.4146 grams.
Iridium-192 is used in cancer treatment, a small cylindrical piece of 192 Ir, 0.6 mm in diameter (0.3mm radius) and 3.5 mm long, is surgically inserted into the tumor. if the density of iridium is 22.42 g/cm3, how many iridium atoms are present in the sample?
Let us start by computing for the volume of the cylinder. V = π(r^2)*h where r and h are the radius and height of the cylinder, respectively. Let's convert all given dimensions to cm first. Radius = 0.03 cm, height is 0.35cm long.
V = π * (0.03cm)^2 * 0.35 cm = 9.896*10^-4 cm^3
Now we have the volume of 192-Ir, let's use the density provided to get it's mass, and once we have the mass let's use the molar mass to get the amount of moles. After getting the amount of moles, we use Avogadro's number to convert moles into number of atoms. See the calculation below and see if all units "cancel":
9.896*10^-4 cm^3 * (22.42 g/cm3) * (1 mole / 191.963 g) * (6.022x10^23 atoms /mole)
= 6.96 x 10^19 atoms of Ir-122 are present.
The molar mass of a substance/chemical is the mass of the sample substance divided by the amount of substance in that sample.
Explanation:
- In order to calculate the atomic mass of a substance we first obtain the atomic weight of the substance from the periodic table.
- Then we count the number of atoms of the substance and multiply it with the individual atomic mass.
Molar mass of Citric Acid ( H3C6H5O7) is 192.1235 g/mol
It is calculated as :
Molar mass of C₆H₈O₇ = 6(atomic mass of C) + 8(atomic mass of H) + 7(atomic mass of O) = 6(12.0 g/mol) + 8(1.0 g/mol) + 7(16.0 g/mol) = 192.0 g/mol.
Molar mass of baking soda (NaHCO₃) is 84.0 g/mol
Molar mass of NaHCO₃ = (atomic mass of Na) + (atomic mass of H) + (atomic mass of C) + 3(atomic mass of O) = (23.0 g/mol) + (1.0 g/mol) + (12.0 g/mol) + 3(16.0 g/mol) = 84.0 g/mol.
