Answer:
Described by a redox reaction below
Explanation:
Iron(III) oxide is an ionic compound, since it consists of a metal, iron, and a nonmetal, oxygen.
Ionic compounds are formed when metals lose their valence electrons in order to have an octet in their previous shell and donate them to nonmetal atoms, so that nonmetals fill their outer shell to have an octet.
As a result, positive ions (cations) and negative ions (anions) are formed. When iron reacts with oxygen, the following reaction takes place:
This is a redox (oxidation–reduction) reaction, since we have electron loss and gain. Four iron atoms lose a total of 12 electrons to obtain a +3 charge in the final compound, while 3 oxygen molecules gain these 12 electrons to become 6 oxide anions with a -2 charge.
Answer:
Final volumeof the gas = 2.84 L
Explanation:
The formular to be used here is the general gas equation. the formular is being used because it gives the relationship between the three gas parameters (volume, temperature and pressure) mentioned.
The general gas equation is given as;
where;
P1 = initial pressure
V1 = initial volume
T1 = initial temperature
P2 = Final pressure
V2 = Final volume
T2 = Final temperature
From the question,
P1 = 1.00 atm
P2 = 0.85atm
T1 = 25C + 273 = 298K (Converting to kelvin)
T2 = 15C + 273 = 288K (Converting to kelvin)
V1 = 2.5L
V2 = ?
from the equation, making V2 subject of formula we have;
V2 = (1*2.5*288)/(298*0.85) = 2.84 L.
