If i need 2.2 moles of co2 , and i have excess fe2o3 , how many moles of c do i need?

2fe2o3 + c --> fe + 3co2

0.733 mol.

Explanation:

2Fe₂O₃ + C → Fe + 3CO₂,

It is clear that 1.0 moles of Fe₂O₃  react with 1.0 mole of C to produce 1.0 mole of Fe and 3.0 moles of CO₂.

Using cross multiplication:

1.0 mole of C produces → 3.0 moles of CO₂, from the stichiometry.

??? mole of C produces → 2.2 moles of CO₂.

∴ The no. of moles of C needed to produce 2.2 moles of CO₂ = (1.0 mole of C) (2.2 mole of CO₂) / (3.0 mole of CO₂) = 0.733 mol.

2fe + 3h2so4 -> fe2(so4)3 + 3h2

it is necessary to balance equations in order to get the proper amount of reactants as well as products in order not to make a miscalculation.

you cannot change the subscripts as that would change the substance itself. for instance, diatomic elements such as h2 only have the subscript two when a gas. another example would be so4, if you were to change the subscript, the element would no longer be sulfate.

we change the coefficients instead as that only changes the number of molecules rather than the substance itself.

hope this !

question: ray weighs 100 kilograms, his wrestling partner, bobby, weighs 50 kilograms. if ray moves at 4 m s , how fast will bobby have to run at him to apply an equal amount of kinetic energy?

answer: 8 m/s he needs to run twice as fast to keep up so he has some work to do

explanation:   if the mass has units of kilograms and the velocity of meters per second, the kinetic energy has units of kilograms-meters squared per second squared.
