Answer:
1) FeSO4 + 2NaOH → Fe(OH)2 + Na2SO4
2) Fe(NO3)3 + 3NaOH → Fe(OH)3 + 3NaNO3
3) There will be 4.5 moles of NaNO3 formed
Explanation:
1. Reaction of Iron (II) Sulfate with Sodium Hydroxide
Iron (II) Sulfate = FeSO4
Sodium Hydroxide = NaOH
FeSO4 + NaOH → Fe^2+ + SO4^2- + Na+ +OH- → Fe(OH)2 + Na2SO4
On the right side we have 2x Na on the left side we have 1x Na so we have to multiply NaOH by 2
Now the equation is balanced and we have:
FeSO4 + 2NaOH → Fe(OH)2 + Na2SO4
2. Reaction of Iron (III) Nitrate with Sodium Hydroxide
Iron (III) Nitrate = Fe(NO3)3
Sodium Hydroxide = NaOH
Fe(NO3)3 + NaOH → Fe^3+ + 3NO- + Na+ + OH-
Fe(NO3)3 +NaOH → Fe(OH)3 + NaNO3
On the right side we have 3x H on the left side 1x H so we have to multiply NaOH by 3
Fe(NO3)3 + 3NaOH → Fe(OH)3 + NaNO3
Now we have 3x Na on the left side, on the right side we have 1x Na
We have to multiply NaNO3 by 3
Fe(NO3)3 + 3NaOH → Fe(OH)3 + 3NaNO3
Now the equation is balanced
3.How many grams of sodium nitrate formed when 1.5 moles of iron (III) nitrate reacted with excess of sodium hydroxide?
Fe(NO3)3 + 3NaOH → Fe(OH)3 + 3NaNO3
For 1 mol of iron(III) nitrate we need 3 moles of sodium hydroxide to produce 1 mol of iron(III) hydroxide and 3 moles of sodium nitrate
For 1.5 moles of iron(III) nitrate we'll have 3*1.5 moles = 4.5 moles of sodium nitrate
There will be 4.5 moles of NaNO3 formed
