Answer:

157.8 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

Fe₂O₃ + 3 CO ⟶ 3 CO₂ + 2 Fe

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 209.7 g of Fe

The molar mass of Fe is 55.85 g/mol

209.7 g × 1 mol/55.85 g = 3.755 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of CO needed to produce 3.755 moles of Fe

The molar ratio of CO to Fe is 3:2. The moles of CO needed are 3/2 × 3.755 = 5.633 mol

Step 4: Calculate the mass corresponding to 5.633 moles of CO

The molar mass of CO is 28.01 g/mol.

5.633 mol × 28.01 g/mol = 157.8 g

For the reaction PC15 (8) PC13 (g) + Cl2 (g) K = 0.0454 at 261 °C. If a vessel is filled with these gases such that the initial

Answer:

The correct answer is B.

The $K_{eq}$ is samller than $Q$ of the reaction . So,the reaction will shift towards the left i.e. towards the reactant side.

Explanation:

Equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as $K_{eq}$

K is the constant of a certain reaction when it is in equilibrium, while Q is the quotient of activities of products and reactants at any stage other than equilibrium of a reaction.

For the given chemical reaction:

$PCl_5(g)\rightleftharpoons PCl_3(g)+Cl_2(g)$
