I believe this is called the 'molar mass'
<h3>
Answer:</h3>
Balanced equation: 4Fe + 3O₂ → 2Fe₂O₃
Moles of oxygen gas = 9 moles
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
To answer the question;
- We first write the balanced equation between iron metal and Oxygen
- The balanced equation is given as;
4Fe + 3O₂ → 2Fe₂O₃
- We are given 6 moles of Fe₂O₃
We are required to determine the number of moles of oxygen needed to form 6 moles of Fe₂O₃.
- From the equation, 3 moles of oxygen gas reacts to produce 2 moles of Fe₂O₃
- This means, the mole ratio of O₂ to Fe₂O₃ is 3 : 2
Therefore; Moles of O₂ = Moles of Fe₂O₃ × 3/2
Hence, moles of oxygen = 6 moles × 3/2
= 9 moles
Thus, Moles of Oxygen needed is 9 moles
