The balanced equation :

8Al + 3Fe₃O₄→ 4Al₂O₃ + 9Fe

You just have to look for which element is in bold because the question is not clear

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Equalization of chemical reaction equations can be done using variables. Steps in equalizing the reaction equation:

1. gives a coefficient on substances involved in the equation of reaction such as a, b, or c etc.

2. make an equation based on the similarity of the number of atoms where the number of atoms = coefficient × index between reactant and product

3. Select the coefficient of the substance with the most complex chemical formula equal to 1

Reaction

Al + Fe₃O₄→ Al₂O₃ + Fe

give a coefficient

aAl + Fe₃O₄→ bAl₂O₃ + cFe

O, left=4, right=3b⇒3b=4⇒b=4/3

Al, left=a, right=2b⇒a=2b⇒a=2.4/3⇒a=8/3

Fe, left=3, right=c⇒c=3

The equation becomes :

8/3Al + Fe₃O₄→ 4/3Al₂O₃ + 3Fe x3

8Al + 3Fe₃O₄→ 4Al₂O₃ + 9Fe

Balance the following equations: (c) H2(g)+I2(s)⟶HI(s)H2(g)+I2(s)⟶HI(s)
kenny6666 [7]

Answer: H_2(g)+I_2(g)\rightarrow 2HI(s)

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

Thus in the reactants, there are 2 atoms of hydrogen and 2 atoms of iodine .Thus there has to be 2 atoms of hydrogen and 2 atoms of iodine in the product as well. Thus a coefficient of 2 is placed in front of HI.

The balanced chemical reaction is:

H_2(g)+I_2(g)\rightarrow 2HI(s)

What would be the temperature of 0.6 moles of fluorine that occupy 15 L at 2,300 mmHg?
Anna [14]

Answer: The temperature of 0.6 moles of fluorine that occupy 15 L at 2,300 mmHg is 920 K

Explanation:

According to ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

P = pressure of gas = 2300 mm Hg = 3.02 atm  (760mmHg=1atm)

V = Volume of gas = 15 L

n = number of moles = 0.6

R = gas constant =0.0821Latm/Kmol

T =temperature = ?

T=\frac{PV}{nR}

T=\frac{3.02atm\times 15L}{0.0821Latm/K mol\times 0.6mol}=920K

Thus the temperature of 0.6 moles of fluorine that occupy 15 L at 2,300 mmHg is 920 K

The rows of the periodic table are called groups because similar elements reside next to each other on the modern periodic table
forsale [732]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The vertical columns on the periodic table are called groups or families because of their similar chemical behavior. All the members of a family of elements have the same number of valence electrons and similar chemical properties. The horizontal rows on the periodic table are called periods.
