The main purpose of a buffer solution is just to resist the change in pH so that the pH of the solution won't be much affected when we add an acid or base into it. The added acid or base is neutralized.
Answer:
Zinc
The element was probably named by the alchemist Paracelsus after the German word Zinke (prong, tooth).
Explanation:
Answer:
162 g Fe₂O₃
Explanation:
To find the mass of Fe₂O₃, you need to (1) convert grams C to moles C (via molar mass from periodic table), then (2) convert moles C to moles Fe₂O₃ (via mole-to-mole ratio from reaction coefficients), and then (3) convert moles Fe₂O₃ to grams (via molar mass). It is important to arrange the ratios/conversions in a way that allows for the cancellation of units. The final answer should have 3 sig figs to reflect the given value.
Molar Mass (C): 12.011 g/mol
2 Fe₂O₃(s) + 3 C(s) ---> 4 Fe(s) + 3 CO₂(g)
Molar Mass (Fe₂O₃): 2(55.845 g/mol) + 3(15.998 g/mol)
Molar Mass (Fe₂O₃): 159.684 g/mol
18.3 g C 1 mole 2 moles Fe₂O₃ 159.684 g
-------------- x ---------------- x ------------------------- x ----------------- = 162 g Fe₂O₃
12.011 g 3 moles C 1 mole
