Answer:

28.9 g

Explanation:

We know that we will need a balanced equation with masses, moles, and molar masses of the compounds involved.

<em>Gather all the information in one place</em> with molar masses above the formulas and masses below them.

$M_{r}$ : 159.69 28.01

Fe₂O₃ + 3CO ⟶ 2Fe + 3CO₂

Mass/g: 55.0

1. Use the molar mass of Fe₂O₃ to calculate the moles of Fe₂O₃.

$\text{Moles of Fe$_{2}$O$_{3}$} =\text{55.0 g Fe$_{2}$O$_{3}$} \times \frac{\text{1 mol Fe$_{2}$O$_{3}$}}{\text{159.69 g Fe$_{2}$O$_{3}$}}= \text{0.3444 mol Fe$_{2}$O$_{3}$}$

2. Use the molar ratio of CO:Fe₂O₃ to calculate the moles of CO.

$\text{Moles of CO} = \text{0.3444 mol Fe$_{2}$O$_{3}$} \times \frac{\text{3 mol CO}}{\text{1 mol Fe$_{2}$O$_{3}$}}= \text{1.033 mol CO}$

3.Use the molar mass of CO to calculate the mass of CO.

$\text{Mass of CO} = \text{1.033 mol CO} \times \frac{\text{28.01 g CO} }{\text{1 mol CO}}= \textbf{28.9 g CO}$

What is the difference between nuclear fusion and nuclear fission?

True [87]

Answer:

[Fusion: Nuclei Fuse together and release energy] [Fission: Pressure and energy is released. This release of energy, is what causes the unstable atom to split to an isotope. I hope this helps!]

[isotopes can split too. At least some.]

Explanation:

Imagine you are trying to push something heavy, fusion is how you can join together and help each other to push this heavy material.

Fun fact! Heavier materials have more inertia against other forces acting on them.

You push harder, harder and harder! Until its pushed.

This will release a lot of energy which escalates to an extended length.

It might not be the finest example, it helped me to understand the basics.

Fission. Imagine having so much energy, in this case, try thinking of so many people in a tight space. What do you do? You will eventually start to escape and leave the room. This is the act of splitting the atom.

This won't be the same than how it was before.

Again, Energy is released (energy!!).

For anyone struggling with this, although it might not be the best idea, I would recommend researching the more advaced options for this topic.

This will give you a wide range of information which can develop your current knowledge about, "Nuclear Fission and Fusion."

It will be difficult, it definitely was for me when I was a child (starting to study science).

Just keep trying, you'll get it.

A balanced chemical reaction obeys the law of...

Anit [1.1K]

Answer: (C) conservation of matter

Solution: Law of conservation of matter or mass states that' total mass of the reactants should always be equal to the total mass of the product that is the total mass is remained conserved in a chemical reaction.

A balanced chemical equation always follow this law.

For example:

$2H_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2H_2O(l)$

Mass of hydrogen = 1 g/mol

Mass of Oxygen = 16 g/mol

Total mass on the reactants = 2(2×1)+(2×16)= 36g/mol

Total mass on the product side = 2[(2×1) +16] = 36 g/mol

As,

Mass on reactant side = Mass on the product side

Therefore, a balanced chemical reaction follows Law of Conservation of mass.

Greeley [361]

Use Charles' Law: V1/T1 = V2/T2. We assume the pressure and mass of the helium is constant. The units for temperature must be in Kelvin to use this equation (x °C = x + 273.15 K).

We want to solve for the new volume after the temperature is increased from 25 °C (298.15 K) to 55 °C (328.15 K). Since the volume and temperature of a gas at a constant pressure are directly proportional to each other, we should expect the new volume of the balloon to be greater than the initial 45 L.

Rearranging Charles' Law to solve for V2, we get V2 = V1T2/T1.

(45 L)(328.15 K)/(298.15 K) = 49.5 ≈ 50 L (if we're considering sig figs).
