Answer: B. 4 moles Fe and 3 moles CO2

Explanation:

write a balanced chemical reaction

that is FeO3 + 3 CO → 2 Fe + 3CO2

2 moles of Fe2O3 reacted with 3 x2=6 moles of Co to form Fe and CO2 therefore CO was in excess and Fe2O3 was limiting reagent.

use the mole ratio to determine the moles of each product.

that is the mole ratio 0f Fe2O3 : Fe is 1:2 therefore the moles of Fe = 2x2=4 moles

the mole ratio of Fe2CO3 : CO2 is 1: 3 therefore the moles of Co2 = 2 x3 = 6 moles

Calculate the percentage by mass of the indicated element in the following compounds. Hydrogen in ascorbic acid, HC6H7O6, also k

Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer: The mass percent of hydrogen in ascorbic acid is 4.5 %

Explanation:

In $C_6H_8O_6$ , there are 6 carbon atoms, 8 hydrogen atoms and 6 oxygen atoms.

To calculate the mass percent of element in a given compound, we use the formula:

$\text{Mass percent of hydrogen}=\frac{\text{Mass of hydrogen}}{\text{Molar mass of ascorbic acid}}\times 100$

Mass of hydrogen = $8\times 1g/mol=8g$

Molar Mass of ascorbic acid = $6\times 12g/mol+8\times 1g/mol+6\times 16g/mol=176g$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Mass percent of hydrogen}=\frac{8g}{176}\times 100=4.5\%$

Hence, the mass percent of of hydrogen in ascorbic acid is 4.5 %.
