Answer: CO is a limiting reagent with regards to the Fe production.

Explanation:

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

Moles of CO = \frac{\text{mass of CO}}{\text{molar mass of CO}}=\frac{13.2 g}{28 g/mol}=0.4714 mol

moles of Fe_2O_3=\frac{\text{mass of} Fe_2O_3}{\text{molar mass of}Fe_2O_3}=\frac{42.7 g g}{159.7 g/mol}=0.2673 mol

According to reaction , 3 mole of CO reacts with 1 mole of Fe_2O_3 then , 0.4714 moles of CO will react with : \frac{1}{3}\times 0.4714 moles of Fe_2O_3 that is 0.1571 moles.

0.4714 moles of CO will react with 0.1571 moles of Fe_2O_3 which means that CO is present in limited amount acting as limiting reagent.

Mole remaining of Fe_2O_3 = 0.2673 mol - 0.1571 mol = 0.1102 mol

Hence, CO is a limiting reagent and  Fe_2O_3 is an excessive reagent.

The electron cloud model describes which of the following?
HACTEHA [7]
1) The trails left by an electron as it moves around the nucleus
The electron model dictates that the electrons have no fixed position so it traces their path.
2) 8
Atomic number is equivalent to proton number
3) Its mass is lowered, but it is still the same element.
The element's identity is due to the number of protons; however, neutrons play a large role in an atom's mass. Thus, the mass will decrease but the element will be the same. Such variants are called isotopes.
