Answer:

22.45g of Fe will be produced

Explanation:

The balanced reaction is:

Fe₂O₃(s) + 3CO(g) → 2Fe(s) + 3CO₂(g)

Where 1 mole of Iron (III) oxide reacts with 2 moles of Iron

To solve this question we have to find the moles of iron (III) oxide. With these moles and the balanced reaction we can find the moles of iron produced and its mass:

Moles iron (III) oxide -Molar mass: 159.69g/mol-

32.1g Fe₂O₃ * (1mol / 159.69g) = 0.201 moles Fe₂O₃

Moles Iron:

0.201 moles Fe₂O₃ * (2mol Fe / 1mol Fe₂O₃) = 0.402 moles of Fe

Mass Fe -Molar mass: 55.845g/mol-

0.402 moles of Fe * (55.845g/mol) =

<h3>22.45g of Fe will be produced</h3>

Р + 02 = P4O6 balance the equation

sergejj [24]

To balance a chemical equation, both sides should have equal mass, or in other words both sides should have same number of atoms as to follow the conservation of mass rule.

P + O₂ = P₄O₆

LHS:

Number of Phosphorus atoms = 1 atom

Number of Oxygen atoms = 2 atoms

RHS:

Number of Phosphorous atoms = 4 atoms

Number of Oxygen atoms = 6 atoms

Also since P₄O₆ has the most number of atoms we will make the LHS equalize to P₄O₆.

Difference between Phosphorous atoms in LHS to RHS = 3

Since phosphorous is a monatomic we need 3 phosphorous atoms extra

Difference between Oxygen atoms is LHS to RHS = 4

But Oxygen is diatomic, so we need 4/2 = 2 Oxygen molecules

Now lets see if it is balanced

P + 3P + O₂ + 2O₂ -------> P₄O₆

4P + 3O₂ ------> P₄O₆

LHS:

Phosphorous atoms = 4 atoms

Oxygen atoms = 3 × 2 = 6 atoms

RHS:

Phosphorous atoms = 4 atoms

Oxygen atoms = 6 atoms

LHS = RHS

Therefore the balanced equation is 4P + 3O₂ = P₄O₆

Happy to help :)

$\huge{ \underline{ \boxed{ \bf{ \green{Answer:}}}}}$

Inside the stomach, Hydrochloric acid kills micro-organisms in the food. Stomach juices begin to break down proteins to amino acids.

✤ So, Fill the blank with proteins.

<h3>Explanation:-</h3>

Inside the stomach, the digestion of proteins starts due to the action of pepsin enzyme.
But this enzyme remains inactive and is activated by the Hydrochloric acid(HCl).
The Hydrochloric acid also helps in killing the germs and microbes which entered along with food.
The mucous lines the wall of stomach to protect it from the harm caused by HCl because HCl is a strong acid.
In stomach, The partial digestion of proteins occur and rest is digested in the small intestine by Trypsin(Pancreatic enzyme) and Intestinal juices.
