How many grams of co are needed with an excess of fe2o3 to produce 27.9 g fe? show work. fe2o3(s)+3co(> 2fe(s)+3co2(g

**show your work**

20.98 gram of CO

Explanation:

Limiting Reagent : The reactant which is present in less amount and get consumed after the reaction completes.

Molar mass : Mass of the substance present in 1 mole of the compound.

Molar mass of Fe = 55.84 gram/mole

1 mole Fe = 55.84 g

2 mole of Fe = 2 x 55.84 g = 111.68 g..........(1)

mass of C = 12

Mass of O = 16

Molar mass of CO = mass of C + mass of O

Molar mass of CO = 28 gram

1 mole of CO = 28 g

3 mole of CO = 3 x 28 = 84 g..........(2)

We need to know which is limiting reagent to calculate the amount of product or vice-versa.

In this question , it is already given that Fe2O3  is excess reagent .Hence CO must be the limiting reagent.

The balanced equation is :

this equation indicates ,

3 moles of CO produce = 2 mole of Fe

or in other words,

2 moles of Fe are produced from = 3 moles of CO

111.68 gram of Fe is produced from = 84 gram of CO

(from equation (1) and (2))

So ,

1 gram of Fe is produced from =

of CO

27.9 g of Fe is produced from=

gram of CO

= 20.98 gram of CO

= 21 gram of CO (In round figures)

yes, water is wet, just as it makes other things wet, it is wet itself, kinda like ice, when ice is in water, the ice makes water cold, and ice is cold, therefore with that example, water is wet
