How many grams of carbon monoxide are needed to react with an excess of iron (III) oxide to produce 198.5 grams of iron? Fe2O3(s

erastova [34]

Answer : The grams of carbon monoxide needed are 148.89 g

Solution : Given,

Mass of iron, Fe = 198.5 g

Molar mass of iron, Fe = 56 g/mole

Molar mass of carbon monoxide, CO = 28 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of iron, Fe.

$\text{ Moles of Fe}=\frac{\text{ Mass of Fe}}{\text{ Molar mass of Fe}}=\frac{198.5g}{56g/mole}=3.545moles$

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$Fe_2O_3(s)+3CO(g)\rightarrow 3CO_2(g)+2Fe(s)$

From the balanced reaction, we conclude that

2 moles of iron produces from the 3 moles of carbon monoxide

3.545 moles of iron produces from the $\frac{3}{2}\times 3.545=5.3175$ moles of carbon monoxide

Now we have to calculate the mass of carbon monoxide, CO.

$\text{ Mass of CO}=\text{ Moles of CO}\times \text{ Molar mass of CO}$

$\text{ Mass of CO}=(5.3175moles)\times (28g/mole)=148.89g$

Therefore, the grams of carbon monoxide needed are 148.89 g

Electroplating is a way to coat a complex metal object with a very thin (and hence inexpensive) layer of a precious metal, such

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

0.0164 g

Explanation:

Let's consider the reduction of silver (I) to silver that occurs in the cathode during the electroplating.

Ag⁺(aq) + 1 e⁻ → Ag(s)

We can establish the following relations.

1 A = 1 C/s
The charge of 1 mole of electrons is 96,468 C (Faraday's constant)
1 mole of Ag(s) is deposited when 1 mole of electrons circulate.
The molar mass of silver is 107.87 g/mol

The mass of silver deposited when a current of 0.770 A circulates during 19.0 seconds is:

$19.0s \times \frac{0.770c}{s} \times \frac{1mole^{-} }{96,468C} \times \frac{1molAg}{1mole^{-}} \times \frac{107.87g}{1molAg} = 0.0164 g$

Sodium thiosulfate, Na 2S 2O 3, is used as a "fixer" in black and white photography. Identify the reducing agent in the reaction

Tatiana [17]

Answer: Reducing agent in the given reaction is $S_{2}O^{2-}_{3}$ .

Explanation:

A reducing agent is defined as an element which tends to lose electrons to other element leading to an increase in its oxidation number.

In the given reaction, oxidation state of sulfur in $S_{2}O^{2-}_{3}$ is +2 and $I_{2}(aq)$ has 0 oxidation state.

In $S_{4}O^{2-}_{6}(aq)$ oxidation state of S is 2.5 and in $2I^{-}(aq)$ oxidation state of I is -1.

Since, an increase in oxidation state of S is occurring from +2 to +2.5. Hence, it is acting as a reducing agent.

Thus, we can conclude that reducing agent in the given reaction is $S_{2}O^{2-}_{3}$ .
