6 Na + 1 Fe₂O₃ → 3 Na₂O + 6 Fe
<h3>Explanation</h3>
Method One: Refer to electron transfers.
Oxidation states:
- Na: from 0 to +1; loses one electron.
- Fe: from +3 to 0; gains three electrons.
Each mole of Fe₂O₃ contains two Fe atoms and will gain 2 × 3 = 6 electrons during the reaction. It takes 6 moles of Na to supply all those electrons.
6 Na + 1 Fe₂O₃ → ? Na₂O + ? Fe
- There are two moles of Na atoms in each mole of Na₂O. 6 moles of Na will make 3 moles of Na₂O.
- There are two moles of Fe atoms in each mole of Fe₂O₃. 1 mole of Fe₂O₃ will make 2 moles of Fe.
6 Na + 1 Fe₂O₃ → 3 Na₂O + 2 Fe
Method Two: Atoms conserve.
Fe₂O₃ has the largest number of atoms among one mole of all four species in this reaction. Assume <em>one</em> as its coefficient.
? Na + <em>1</em> Fe₂O₃ → ? Na₂O + ? Fe
There are two moles of Fe atoms and three moles of O atoms in each mol of Fe₂O₃. One mole of Fe₂O₃ contains two moles of Fe and three moles of O. There are one mole of O atom in every mole of Na₂O. Three moles of O will go to three moles of Na₂O.
? Na + <em>1</em> Fe₂O₃ → <em>3</em> Na₂O + <em>2</em> Fe
Each mole of Na₂O contains two moles of Na. Three moles of Na₂O will contain six moles of Na.
<em>6</em> Na + <em>1</em> Fe₂O₃ → <em>3</em> Na₂O + <em>2</em> Fe
Simplify the coefficients. All coefficients in this equation are now full number and relatively prime. Hence the equation is balanced.
6 Na + 1 Fe₂O₃ → 3 Na₂O + 2 Fe
The moon should be between the sun and Earth
Answer:
40 moles of O₂
30 moles of CO₂
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Number of moles of C₃H₄ = 10moles
Unknown:
Number of moles of CO₂ = ?
Solution:
The number of moles helps to understand and make quantitative measurements involving chemical reactions.
We start by solving this sort of problem by ensuring that the given equation is properly balanced;
C₃H₄ + 4O₂ → 3CO₂ + 2H₂O
We can clearly see that all the atoms are conserved.
Now, we work from the known to unknown. We know the number of moles of C₃H₄ to be 10moles;
1 mole of C₃H₄ reacted with 4 moles of O₂
10 moles of C₃H₄ will react with 10 x 4 = 40moles of O₂
1 mole of C₃H₄ will produce 3 moles of CO₂
10 moles of C₃H₄ will produce 10 x 3 = 30moles of CO₂
Answer: Food production industry
Explanation:
Cooling is a process used mainly to reduce the temperature of food to either enter a different process or for storage purposes.
The temperature reached by the cooling process is usually between -1 and 8 degrees celcius.
This is a double replacement reaction; the ions switch twice.
