Answer:

Fe₂O₃

Explanation:

To solve this question we must find the moles of Iron in 1.68g. With the difference of the masses we can find the moles of oxygen. The formula will be obtained with the ratio of both amount of moles:

<em>Moles Fe:</em>

1.68g * (1mol / 56g)  =0.03moles

<em>Moles O:</em>

2.40g-1.68g = 0.72g * (1mol/16g) = 0.045moles

The ratio O/Fe is:

0.045moles / 0.03moles = 1.5 moles. this ratio is obtained if the formula is:

<h3>Fe₂O₃</h3>

AleksandrR [38]
Description:

<span>"0.0400 mol of H2O2 decomposed into 0.0400 mol of H2O and 0.0200 mol of O2." 

This means that a certain amount of H2O2 (0.0400 mol) decomposed or was broken down into two components, 0.04 mol of H2O and 0.02 mol of O2. To examine the system, we need a balanced equation:

H2O2 ---> H2O + 0.5O2

The final concentrations of the system indicates that the system is in equilibrium. </span>
