The grams of Fe₂O₃ that are formed is 47.68 g
<u><em>calculation</em></u>
Step 1: write the equation for reaction
4 Fe +3O₂ → 2 Fe₂O₃
Step 2: find the moles of Fe
moles = mass÷ molar mass
= 33.4 g÷55.8 g/mol =0.5986 moles
Step 3 : use the mole ratio to determine the moles of Fe₂O₃
That is from equation above Fe:Fe₂O₃ is 4:2 therefore the moles of Fe₂O₃ is = 0.5986 moles x 2/4 =0.2993 moles
Step 4 : find the mass of Fe₂O₃
mass = mass x molar mass
The molar mass of Fe₂O₃ = (55.8 x 2 +(15.9 x3) = 159.3 g/mol
mass is therefore = 0.2993 moles x 159.3 g/mol =47.68 g
Answer:
Concentration, because the amounts of reactants and products remain constant after equilibrium is reached.
Explanation:
The rate of reaction refers to the amount of reactants converted or products formed per unit time.
As the reaction progresses, reactions are converted into products. This continues until equilibrium is attained in a closed system.
When equilibrium is attained, the rate of forward reaction is equal to the rate of reverse reaction, hence the concentration of reactants and products in the system remain fairly constant over time.
When deducing the rate of reaction, concentration of the specie of interest is plotted on the y-axis against time on the x-axis.
It protects the alloy against rusting.
Stainless steels contain more than 10% chromium by mass, but almost no carbon. Stainless steels are durable because chromium forms an oxide that protects the steel from rusting. But stainless steel is more brittle than steels that contain more carbon.
