Answer:

166 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the reaction for the obtaining of Fe from magnetite

Fe₃O₄ ⇒ 3 Fe + 2 O₂

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 120 g of Fe

The molar mass of Fe is 55.85 g/mol.

120 g × (1 mol/55.85 g) = 2.15 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of Fe₃O₄ required to produce 2.15 moles of Fe

The molar ratio of Fe₃O₄ to Fe is 1:3. The moles of Fe₃O₄ required are 1/3 × 2.15 mol = 0.717 mol

Step 4: Calculate the mass corresponding to 0.717 moles of Fe₃O₄

The molar mass of Fe₃O₄ is 231.53 g/mol.

0.717 mol × 231.53 g/mol = 166 g

Flura [38]

Answer:  Molarity of Cl^- anions in the chemist's solution is 0.0104 M

Explanation:

Molarity : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present per liter of the solution.

Formula used :

Molarity=\frac{n\times 1000}{V_s}

where,

n= moles of solute

Moles=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}=\frac{0.049g}{95g/mol}=5.2\times 10^{-4}moles  

V_s = volume of solution in ml = 100 ml

Now put all the given values in the formula of molarity, we get

Molarity=\frac{5.2\times 10^{-4}moles\times 1000}{100ml}=5.2\times 10^{-3}mole/L

Therefore, the molarity of solution will be 5.2\times 10^{-3}mole/L

MgCl_2\rightarrow Mg^{2+}+2Cl^-

As 1 mole of MgCl_2 gives 2 moles of Cl^-

Thus 5.2\times 10^{-3}  moles of MgCl_2 gives =\frac{2}{1}\times 5.2\times 10^{-3}=0.0104

Thus the molarity of Cl^- anions in the chemist's solution is 0.0104 M
