How many molecules are there in 79g of Fe2O3? how many atoms is this?

1 answer:

4 0

There are approximately 160 grams in 1 mol of Fe2O3 molecules. Therefore, there would be 79/160= 0.49375 mols of Fe2O3 molecules in 79 grams. There are 5 atoms in total for each molecule of Fe2O3, therefore 79/160 * 5 = 79/32 = 2.46875 mols of atoms.

Why do atoms form blonds

lakkis [162]

Answer:

Atoms form chemical bonds to make their outer electron shells more stable. ... An ionic bond, where one atom essentially donates an electron to another, forms when one atom becomes stable by losing its outer electrons and the other atoms become stable (usually by filling its valence shell) by gaining the electrons.

Determine the reducing agent in the following reaction. Explain your answer. 2 Li(s) + Fe(C2H3O2)2(aq) → 2 LiC2H3O2(aq) + Fe(s)

Brilliant_brown [7]

The reducing agent in the reaction 2Li(s) + Fe(CH₃COO)₂(aq) → 2LiCH₃COO(aq) + Fe(s) is lithium (Li).

The general reaction is:

2Li(s) + Fe(CH₃COO)₂(aq) → 2LiCH₃COO(aq) + Fe(s) (1)

We can write the above reaction in two reactions, one for oxidation and the other for reduction:

Oxidation reaction

Li⁰(s) → Li⁺(aq) + e⁻ (2)

Reduction reaction

Fe²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ → Fe⁰(s) (3)

We can see that Li⁰ is oxidizing to Li⁺ (by losing one electron) in the lithium acetate (reaction 2) and that Fe²⁺ in iron(II) acetate is reducing to Fe⁰ (by gaining two electrons) (reaction 3).

We must remember that the reducing agent is the one that will be oxidized by reducing another element and that the oxidizing agent is the one that will be reduced by oxidizing another species.

In reaction (1), the reducing agent is Li (it is oxidizing to Li⁺), and the oxidizing agent is Fe(CH₃COO)₂ (it is reducing to Fe⁰).

Therefore, the reducing agent in reaction (1) is lithium (Li).

Why is it better to give the actual speed of an object rather than to simply say it moved fast or it moved slowly

DIA [1.3K]

Specificity. It’s really loose to say that something is fast, since speed can be scalarly linked and relative. I could say that both a car on the highway is fast, but so is the speed of light. The actual speed of something helps to do away with the arbitrary nature of using “fast” and “slow”; however, we’re still at step one of the person who is receiving the information is unfamiliar with the scale that the actual speed is defined in.
