Answer:
6 moles
Explanation:
Looking at the coefficient of the reactants/ products, the ratio of Fe consumed to Fe₂O₃ produced is 4: 2.
Fe: Fe₂O₃
= 4: 2
= 2: 1
This means that the amount of Fe₂O₃ produced is half the amount of Fe consumed, in terms of moles.
Given that 12 moles of Fe are consumed,
amount of Fe₂O₃ produced
= 12 ÷2
= 6 moles
Answer:
see explanation
Explanation:
4Fe +3O2----------2Fe2O3
if we have 12 moles of Fe, we have 3X4 mole of Fe
but since 4 moles of Fe produce 2 moles of Fe2O3,6 then 3X 4 moles of Fe produce 3X2 moles of Fe2O3 or
6 moles.
One mole of Fe2O3 has a molar mass of (56X2) +(3X16) = 112+48 = 160
One mole Fe2O3 has a molar mass of 160 gm
6 moles of Fe2O3 have a mass of 160 X6 =960 gm
