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

Explain why it is not possible to determine the type of Atom by simplifying knowing how many neutrons it has.
alexdok [17]

Answer:

It is not possible to accurately identify an element given only the number of neutrons. All atoms are made of three particles: electrons, protons and neutrons. The number of electrons is equal to the number of protons if the atom is uncharged.

Answer: the way root cells reproduce to increase root length

Explanation:

Rudolf Ludwig Carl Virchowas known as the founder of social medicine and also the father of modern pathology.

Virchow posited that all cells are gotten from already existing cells and he used this in his work towards cellular pathology, as it was made clear that diseases takes place at the cellular level. He posited that the cells that are malfunctioning cause diseases.

Based on the above analysis, the image that Tumu would most likely use in his assignment to feature Rudolf Virchow is the way root cells reproduce to increase root length.

The equilibrium constant for the chemical equation is Kp = 5.23 at 191 °C. Calculate the value of the Kc for the reaction at 191
Lapatulllka [165]
To convert from Kp to Kc, you need this formula---> Kp= Kc (RT)^Δn, where Δn= gas moles of product- gas moles of reactants. since you did not give a reaction formula, I can't calculate Δn. but all once you find it out. just plug it. 

Kp= Kc (RT)^Δn------------------> Kc= Kp/[(RT)^Δn]
 Kp= 5.23
R= 0.0821
T= 191 C= 464 K
Δn= ?

Kc= 5.23/ (0.0821 x 464)^Δn= ???
