Answer:
4 Fe + 3 O2 = 2 Fe2O3
Explanation:
In order to balance the equation, there should be equal number of iron atoms (Fe) and oxygen atoms (O2) in Iron(III) oxide (Fe2O3).
Since there are two atoms of Oxygen in 1 oxygen molecule and 3 atoms of Oxygen in 1 Iron Oxide, the least common multiples of the total oxygen atoms which would equal each other is 6 atoms of Oxygen. This results in 3 molecules of O2 and 2 molecules of Fe2O3.
In order to balance out the amount of iron in iron oxide, you must then calculate the total iron atoms in iron oxide; since there are 2 atoms of Fe in each molecule of Iron Oxide and there is 2 molecules of Fe2O3, the total is 2*2 = 4 atoms of iron, Fe.
In order to get 4 atoms of iron from molecules of Fe, you need 4 molecules of Fe, since each molecule contains 1 Fe.
B) 0.50 moles of carbon dioxide.
The third one is the correct answer :)
The appropriate answer is d. recording and studying seismic waves. Seismic waves behave differently as the enter the different layers of the Earth. Scientists used seismic or earthquake waves to determine the different layers of the Earth. The behaviour of the waves as they move through the layers helped scientists identify the boundaries and the state of each layer; solid or liquid.
