PLEASE HELP! (IM GIVING BRAINLIEST) Iron is a transition metal and, as such, can form two types of "oxide" salt compounds, FeO a

nd Fe2O3.
a) How are the iron atoms in each of these formulas different?

b) Explain the electron behavior among iron and oxygen atoms as they bond with one another in both of these compounds.​

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Iron exhibits two stable oxidation states, +2 and +3 states. The difference between FeO and Fe2O3 is that, in FeO, Fe is in the +2 oxidation state while in Fe2O3, Fe is in the +3 oxidation state

In FeO, iron looses two electrons which are gained by oxygen as follows;

Fe^2+ + O^2- -----> FeO

In Fe2O3, Fe looses six electrons while oxygen has gained six electrons as shown;

2Fe^3+ + 3O^2- ------>Fe2O3

If you add enzyme to a solution containing only the product(s) of a reaction, would you expect any substrate to form?
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

e

Explanation:

<em>Provided the reaction that leads to the formation of the products can proceed in both forward and backward directions, the correct answer would be yes because the reaction will proceed backward until equilibrium is reached.</em>

<u>For a reaction that can proceed both forward and backward, the addition of a catalyst increases the rate of reaction in both directions based on the fact that a catalyst cannot alter the equilibrium of a reaction. </u>

Hence, if an enzyme is added to the product of a reaction that has the potential to proceed in both forward and reverse reactions, a substrate would be expected to form because the reaction will proceed backward until an equilibrium is reached.

The correct option is e.

The ratio of carbon atoms to hydrogen atoms to oxygen atoms in a molecule of dicyclohexyl maleate is 4 to 6 to 1. what is its mo
Semenov [28]
Knowing the ratio between atoms we can write an empirical formula: 

<span>C4H6O </span>

<span>we compute the molar mass of this single formula: </span>
<span>4x12 + 6 x 1 + 16 x1 = 70 g / mol </span>

<span>Now, as we know the actual molar mas being 280 g/mol, we divide this number by 70 and we get the ratio between empirical formula and molecular actual formula: </span>

<span>280 / 70 = 4 </span>

<span>This means that actual molecular formula is: </span>

<span>(C4H6O)4 or </span>

<span>C16H24O4 </span>

Determine Δngas for each of the following reaction:(b) 2PbO(s) + O₂(g) ⇄ 2PbO₂(s)
Elis [28]

2PbO(s) + O₂(g) ⇄ 2PbO₂(s)

Then Δngas = -1

<h3>What is Δngas?</h3>

The number of moles of gas that move from the reactant side to the product side is denoted by the symbol ∆n or delta n in this equation.

Once more, n represents the growth in the number of gaseous molecules the equilibrium equation can represent. When there are exactly the same number of gaseous molecules in the system, n = 0, Kp = Kc, and both equilibrium constants are dimensionless.

<h3>Definition of equilibrium</h3>

When a chemical reaction does not completely transform all reactants into products, equilibrium occurs. Many chemical processes eventually reach a state of balance or dynamic equilibrium where both reactants and products are present.
