Answer:

Kf = 9.96x10⁴¹

Explanation:

When Fe³⁺ and CN⁻ are in water, complex Fe(CN)₆³⁻ is formed, thus:

Fe³⁺ + 6CN⁻ ⇄ Fe(CN)₆³⁻

Kf is defined as:

Kf = [Fe(CN)₆³⁻] / [Fe³⁺] [CN⁻]⁶

Equilibrium concentration of ions is:

[Fe(CN)₆³⁻] = 1.5x10⁻³M

[Fe³⁺] = 8.5x10⁻⁴⁰

[CN⁻] = [KCN] = 0.11M

Replacing in Kf expression:

Kf = [1.5x10⁻³M] / [8.5x10⁻⁴⁰] [ 0.11M]⁶

<h3>Kf = 9.96x10⁴¹</h3>

If the equation: FeCl3+O2--&gt;Fe2O3+Cl2, how many moles of chlorine gas can be produced if 4 moles of FeCl3 react with 4 moles
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

6 moles of Cl2

Explanation:

First, the equation has to be balanced, which makes it 4 FeCl3 + 3 O2 --> 2 Fe2O3 + 6 Cl2

Using this information, we can see that one mole of O2 will not be present in the reaction. Since four moles of FeCl3 are needed to react in the equation, which would produce six moles of Cl2, and only four moles of FeCl3 are present, six moles of Cl2 would be produced.
