According to the following balanced equation, 2 formula units of Iron (III) Oxide (Fe2O3) can be formed by reacting 4 atoms of i
-Dominant- [34]
You have to use Avogadro's number (6.02x10^23 molecules/mole) to find the number of moles each reactant starts off with.
moles of Fe and O₂:
12 atoms/(6.02x10^23 atoms/mole)=1.99x10^-23 mol Fe
6 molecules/(6.02x10^23 molecules/mole)=9.967x10^-24 mol <span>O₂
</span>Then you find the limiting reagent by finding how much product each given amount of reactant can make.  Which ever one produces the least amount of product is the limiting reagent.
amount of Fe₂O₃ produced:
<span>(1.99x10^-23 mol Fe)x(2mol/4mol)= 9.967x10^-24mol Fe</span>₂O₃<span> 
</span>(9.967x10^-24 mol O₂)x(2mol/3mol)= 6.645x10^-24 mol Fe₂O₃<span> 
</span>since oxygen produces the leas amount of product, oxygen is the limiting reagent.  since we know that oxygen is the limiting reagent we can use the amount of product formed with oxygen to find the amount of iron used.
6.645x10^-24 mol Fe₂O₃x(4mol/2mol)=1.329x10^-23 mol Fe consumed
<span> find the amount left over by subtracting the original amount of Fe by the amount consumed in the reaction.
</span>1.993x10^-23-1.329x10^-23= 6.645x10^-23mol Fe left
 find the number of atoms by multiplying that by Avogadro's number.
<span>(6.645x10^-23mol)x(6.02x10^23 atoms/mol)=4 atoms
</span>therefore 4 atoms of Fe will be left over after the reaction happens.

I hope this helps.

A carbon skeleton is covalently bonded to both an amino group and a carboxyl group. When placed in water it ____
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

The correct option is: (D) would function as both an acid and a base

Explanation:

A carbon skeleton bonded to a amino group as well as a carboxyl group, will behave as an acid in basic medium and base in acidic medium. This is because the carboxyl group present in the compound will release a proton in basic medium and the amino group will accept a proton in the acidic medium.

<u>Therefore, a carbon skeleton which is covalently bonded to a carboxyl and amino group will behave as both acid and base.</u>

Which change will cause the greatest increase in the rate of reaction for this chemical reaction? 8Zn(s) + S8(s) 8ZnS(s) A. addi
Rus_ich [418]

I found another question like this. Someone answered "The best answer to this question is adding a catalyst. 

Adding a catalyst  will cause the greatest increase in the rate of reaction for this chemical reaction , 8Zn(s) + S8(s) 8ZnS(s).                                                         ---> adding a catalyst always affects the rate of a reaction."
