4Fe (s) + 3 O2 (g) → 2 Fe2O3 (s)

Chemistry
1 answer:
Novay_Z [31]3 years ago
5 0

Explanation:

The number acquired by an element after the lose or gain of an electron is called oxidation number.

For example, 4Fe(s) + 3O_{2}(g) \rightarrow 2Fe_{2}O_{3}(s)

Here, oxidation number of Fe(s) is 0 and Fe in Fe_{2}O_{3} is +3.

Oxidation number of O in O_{2}(g) is 0 as it is present in its elemental state.

The oxidation number of O in Fe_{2}O_{3} is calculated as follows.

2(3) + 3x = 0\\6 + 3x = 0\\x = \frac{-6}{3}\\= -2

Hence,  oxidation number of O in Fe_{2}O_{3} is -2.

  • The loss of electrons by an element or substance is called oxidation. Here, electrons are being lost by Fe(s) as an increase in oxidation state is occurring. So, Fe(s) is oxidized.
  • The gain of electrons by an element or substance is called reduction. Here, electrons are being added to O_{2} as a decrease in its oxidation state is occurring. So, O_{2}  is reduced.
  • An element or compound which is being reduced is called oxidizing agent. Here, O_{2}  is the oxidizing agent.
  • An element or compound which is being oxidized is called reducing agent. Here, Fe(s) is the reducing agent.

salantis [7]

Answer:

-245.7°C es la temperatura del gas bajo 100 torr

Explanation:

Para resolver esta pregunta debemos hacer uso de la ley de Boyle que establece que la presión de un gas es directamente proporcional a la temperatura de este cuando el volumen permanece constante. La ecuación es:

P1T2 = P2T1

<em>Donde P es presión y T temperatura absoluta del estado inicial, 1, y final, 2.</em>

<em />

Reemplazando:

P1 = 1000torr

T2 = ? -Incógnita-

P2 = 100torr

T1 = 273K -Temperatura del hielo fundido = 0°C = 273K

1000torrT2 = 100torr273

T2 = 27.3K

27.3K - 273 =

Answer:

18.2 g.

Explanation:

You need to first figure out how many moles of nitrogen gas and hydrogen (gas) you have. To do this, use the molar masses of nitrogen gas and hydrogen (gas) on the periodic table. You get the following:

0.535 g. N2 and 1.984 g. H2

Then find out which reactant is the limiting one. In this case, it's N2. The amount of ammonia, then, that would be produced is 2 times the amount of moles of N2. This gives you 1.07 mol, approximately. Then multiply this by the molar mass of ammonia to find your answer of 18.2 g.

Consider the two facts below:
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

A. There is more dissolved oxygen in colder waters than in warm water.

D. If ocean temperature rise, then the risk to the fish population increases.

Explanation:

Conclusion that can be drawn from the two facts stated above:

*Dissolved oxygen is essential nutrient for fish survival in their aquatic habitat.

*Dissolved oxygen would decrease as the temperature of aquatic habit rises, and vice versa.

*Fishes, therefore, would thrive best in colder waters than warmer waters.

The following are scenarios that can be explained by the facts given and conclusions arrived:

A. There is more dissolved oxygen in colder waters than in warm water (solubility of gases decreases with increase in temperature)

D. If ocean temperature rise, then the risk to the fish population increases (fishes will thrive best in colder waters where dissolved oxygen is readily available).
