Consider the process used to produce iron metal from its ore.
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

223.4 grams of iron can be produced from 2.5 moles of Fe2O3 and 6.0 moles of CO.

Explanation:

The balanced reaction is:

Fe₂O₃ (s) + 3 CO(g) → 2 Fe(s) + 3 CO₂ (g)

By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of reactant and product participate in the reaction:

  • Fe₂O₃: 1 mole
  • CO: 3 moles
  • Fe: 2 moles
  • CO₂: 3 moles

Being:

  • Fe: 55.85 g/mole
  • O: 16 g/mole
  • C: 12 g/mole

the molar mass of the compounds participating in the reaction is:

  • Fe₂O₃: 2*55.85 g/mole + 3*16 g/mole= 159.7 g/mole
  • CO: 12 g/mole + 16 g/mole= 28 g/mole
  • Fe: 55.85 g/mole
  • CO₂: 12 g/mole + 2*16 g/mole= 44 g/mole

Then, by stoichiometry of the reaction, the following quantities participate in the reaction:

  • Fe₂O₃: 1 mole* 159.7 g/mole= 159.7 g
  • CO: 3 moles* 28 g/mole= 84 g
  • Fe: 2 moles* 55.85 g/mole= 111.7 g
  • CO₂: 3 moles* 44 g/mole= 132 g

The limiting reagent is one that is consumed first in its entirety, determining the amount of product in the reaction. When the limiting reagent is finished, the chemical reaction will stop.

So, first of all, you can apply the following rule of three: if by reaction stoichiometry 1 mole of Fe₂O₃ reacts with 3 moles of CO, then 2.5 moles of Fe₂O₃ react with how many moles of CO?

moles of CO=\frac{2.5 moles of Fe_{2} O_{3}*3 moles of CO }{1 mole of Fe_{2} O_{3}}

moles of CO= 7.5

But 7.5 moles of CO are not available, 6.0 moles are available. Since you have less moles than you need to react with 2.5 moles of Fe₂O₃, CO will be the limiting reagent.

Now you can apply the following rule of three: if by reaction stoichiometry 3 moles of CO produce with 111.7 grams of Fe, then 6 moles of CO will produce how much mass of Fe?

mass of Fe=\frac{6 moles of CO*111.7 grams of Fe}{3 moles of CO}

mass of Fe= 223.4 grams

<u><em>223.4 grams of iron can be produced from 2.5 moles of Fe2O3 and 6.0 moles of CO.</em></u>

Why methyl orange in basic medium is yellow and why it is red in acidic medium?​
Sholpan [36]
Methyl orange shows red color in acidic medium and yellow color in basic medium. Because it changes color at the pKa of a mid strength acid, it is usually used in titration for acids. Unlike a universal indicator, methyl orange does not have a full spectrum of color change, but it has a sharp end point.

Phosphorus can be stable with 12 electrons in its valence structure while nitrogen can never have more than 8 electrons in its v
dolphi86 [110]

Here we have explain that the maximum possible electrons present in nitrogen valence shell is 8 whereas in phosphorous 12 valence electrons are present.

Although both nitrogen (N) and phosphorous (P) belongs to the same series there are several properties which are different between both the element. The number of electrons present in nitrogen is seven which are present in the -s and -p orbitals. The electronic configuration of nitrogen is 1s²2s²2p³. In which the outermost electrons are the valence electrons i.e. 5 valence electrons are present. The maximum orbitals are possible under the principal quantum number 2 are -s and -p orbitals. Now the maximum capacity of the p orbital to contain 6 electrons, as it is half filled in nitrogen another 3 electrons can be incorporated. Thus the maximum number of electrons can be present in nitrogen is 10 among which 8 is the valence electrons.

On the other hand there are 15 electrons in phosphorous the electronic configuration is 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p³. Now the principal quantum number 3 can have three orbitals -s, -p and -d. So another 13 electrons can be incorporated (3 in -p orbital and 10 in -d orbital) among which upto 12 electrons can be its valence electrons.

The mixing of which pair of reactants will result in a precipitation reaction?
Maru [420]

Answer:

K2SO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq)

Explanation:

K2SO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq)= 2KNO3(aq) + BaSO4(s)

The reaction produces BaSO4

Which precipitates as the insoluble product and Soluble KNO3 solution
