2. What states of matter exist within the human body? What state of matter do you think your body is mostly made up of? Why? (4 points) Think about whether the body contains solids, liquids, or gases. Which of the three would you be most likely to find?

Solids, liquids, and gases, exist in the human body. The body is mostly made up of liquid because the human body is 60% water. You would most likely be able to find solids (bones), liquids (blood, stomach acid) and gases (oxygen in your lungs or air in your digestive tract).

Explanation:

first, consult an activity series chart to determine if al is more reactive than fe. it is, so it will replace the fe. now, one can continue with the problem.

next, make sure you have a correctly balanced equation.

3feo + 2al ==> 3fe + al2o3

now, determine which reactant (feo or al) is in limiting supply.

moles feo present = 125 g x 1 mole/71.8 g = 1.74 moles

moles al present = 25.0 g x 1 mole/26.98 g = 0.927 moles

since from the balanced equation, it take 3 mol feo for every 2 mol al, al will be limiting.

you can determine this simply by dividing moles of each by their coefficient in the balanced equation. for example: 1.74/3 = 0.58 and 0.927/2 = 0.464. al is less, so it is limiting.

finally, using the stoichiometry in the balanced eq. determine mass of fe that can be produced from 0.927 moles of al.

0.927 moles al x 3 moles fe/2 moles al x 55.8 g/mole = 77.6 g
