Answer:

The coefficient of Fe₂O₃ is 1

Explanation:

__Fe₂O₃ + 3H₂ —> 2Fe + 3H₂O

To know the correct coefficient of Fe₂O₃, we shall balanced the equation. This can be obtained as follow:

Fe₂O₃ + H₂ —> Fe + H₂O

There are 2 atoms of Fe on the left side and 1 atom on right side. It can be balance by writing 2 before Fe as shown below:

Fe₂O₃ + H₂ —> 2Fe + H₂O

There are 3 atoms of O on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by writing 3 before H₂O as shown below:

Fe₂O₃ + H₂ —> 2Fe + 3H₂O

There are 2 atoms of H on the left side and 6 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by writing 3 before H₂ as shown below:

Fe₂O₃ + 3H₂ —> 2Fe + 3H₂O

Now, the equation is balanced.

Thus, the coefficient of Fe₂O₃ is 1

If you know the mass of Earth, what other single value would you need to know to calculate Earth's average density?
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

Volume

Explanation:

Density:

Density is equal to the mass of substance divided by its volume.  In order to find the density of earth when mass is given we have to calculate its volume. The volume of earth is calculated by using the volume formula for sphere. i.e 4/3 π r³. we also require radius to find the volume and we know that

Diameter = 2 × radius

The diameter of earth equator is 12756.75 Km. So we calculate the radius by dividing the diameter by 2. Then by putting the value of radius in 4/3 π r³ we will get the volume and then we can calculate the density of earth.

Units:

SI unit of density is Kg/m3.

Other units are given below,

g/cm3, g/mL , kg/L

Formula:

D=m/v

D= density

m=mass

V=volume

Symbol:

The symbol used for density is called rho. It is represented by ρ. However letter D can also be used to represent the density.

Which best describes the field of chemistry?
qaws [65]

Answer:

Fundamentally, chemistry is the study of matter and change. The way that chemists study matter and change and the types of systems that are studied varies dramatically. Traditionally, chemistry has been broken into five main subdisciplines: Organic, Analytical, Physical, Inorganic, and Biochemistry.

hope this helps :)

The diagram shows the process of photosynthesis. Which part represents an autotroph?
Naddik [55]

Answer:

A and B

Explanation:

The Sun's Energy is stored in the chemical bonds that make up food. Some forms of life make their own food. These are the Autotrophs.

Plants are autotrophs, which means they produce their own food.
