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>

Law of conservation of mass to explain why a chemical equation must be balanced?

SOVA2 [1]

Chemical equations must always balance due to the principles outlined in The Law Of Conservation of Matter. This scientific law states that matter cannot be created out of nothing nor can it be destroyed.

Does adding 1 mol of NaCl to 1 kg of water lower the vapor pressure of water to the same extent, a lesser extent, or a greater e

igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

Adding 1 mol of NaCl to 1 kg of water lower the vapor pressure of water to the same extent by adding 1 mol of $C_06H_{12}O_6$ to 1 kg of water.

Explanation:

1) Moles of NaCl , $n_1=1 mol$

Mass of water = m= 1 kg = 1000 g

Moles of water = $n_2=\frac{1000 g}{18 g/mol}=55.55 mol$

Vapor pressure of the solution = $p$

Vapor pressure of the pure solvent that is water = $p_o=17.5 Torr$

Mole fraction of solute(NaCl)= $\chi_1=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}$

$\frac{p_o-p}{p_o}=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}$

$\frac{17.5 Torr-p}{17.5 Torr}=\frac{1 mol}{1 mol+55.55 mol}$

$p=17.19 Torr$

The vapor pressure for the NaCl solution at 17.19 Torr.

2) Moles of sucrose , $n_1=1mol$

Mass of water = m = 1 kg = 1000 g

Moles of water = $n_2=\frac{1000 g}{18 g/mol}=55.55 mol$

Vapor pressure of the solution = $p'$

Vapor pressure of the pure solvent that is water = $p_o=17.5 Torr$

Mole fraction of solute ( glucose)= $\chi_1=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}$

$\frac{p_o-p}{p_o}=\frac{n_1}{n_1+n_2}$

$\frac{17.5 Torr-p}{17.5 Torr}=\frac{1 mol}{1 mol+55.55 mol}$

$p'=17.19 Torr$

The vapor pressure for the glucose solution at 17.19 Torr.

p = p' = 17.19 Torr

Adding 1 mol of NaCl to 1 kg of water lower the vapor pressure of water to the same extent by adding 1 mol of $C_06H_{12}O_6$ to 1 kg of water.

The metalloid that has five valence electrons in the fourth electron shell is

insens350 [35]

Arsenic, I believe. Metalloids fall in between metals and nonmetals (usually on the bold line separating the two on the periodic table). And since the metalloid in question has four electron shells and five valence electrons in the outermost shell, you can see that this element is arsenic
