Calculate the volume of CO2 that would be produced from 0.5 mole of Fe2O3 according to the equation.Fe2O3(s)+3CO(g)=2Fe(s)+3CO2(g). (1mole of a gas occupies 22.4dm3 at s.t.p)
well, note that each mole of Fe2O3 produces 3 moles of CO2
So, you will get 3 * 0.5 * 22.4 dm^3 of CO2
33.6
Well, let's do some math and a little bit of clowning around to find the answer, shall we?
According to the balanced equation, for every 1 mole of Fe2O3, we get 3 moles of CO2. Since we have 0.5 moles of Fe2O3, that means we'll get 1.5 moles of CO2.
Now, we know that 1 mole of gas occupies 22.4 dm3 at standard temperature and pressure (STP). So, if we have 1.5 moles of CO2, we can calculate the volume of CO2 using some good old clown logic.
1.5 moles of CO2 x 22.4 dm3/mole = 33.6 dm3 of CO2
So, the volume of CO2 produced from 0.5 mole of Fe2O3 is approximately 33.6 dm3. Just remember, this is a clown's answer, so take it with a big red nose of humor!
To calculate the volume of CO2 produced from 0.5 mole of Fe2O3, we need to use stoichiometry. From the balanced equation:
Fe2O3(s) + 3CO(g) → 2Fe(s) + 3CO2(g)
We can see that for every 3 moles of CO(g), 3 moles of CO2(g) are produced. Therefore, the ratio of moles of CO2 to moles of CO is 1:1.
So, since we have 0.5 mole of Fe2O3, we will need 1 mole of CO to produce the same amount of CO2.
Now, we have the moles of CO2 and we know that 1 mole of a gas occupies 22.4 dm^3 at standard temperature and pressure (STP).
Therefore, the volume of CO2 produced from 0.5 mole of Fe2O3 would be:
0.5 mole CO2 × 22.4 dm^3/mole = 11.2 dm^3
To calculate the volume of CO2 produced, we need to use the mole ratio from the balanced chemical equation and the given number of moles of Fe2O3. Here's how you can solve it:
1. Write down the balanced chemical equation:
Fe2O3(s) + 3CO(g) → 2Fe(s) + 3CO2(g)
2. Identify the mole ratios between Fe2O3 and CO2:
From the balanced equation, we can see that 1 mole of Fe2O3 produces 3 moles of CO2.
3. Calculate the moles of CO2 formed:
Given that we have 0.5 moles of Fe2O3, we can use the mole ratio to find the moles of CO2 produced. Since the mole ratio is 1:3 for Fe2O3:CO2, we can multiply 0.5 moles of Fe2O3 by the mole ratio:
0.5 moles Fe2O3 * (3 moles CO2 / 1 mole Fe2O3) = 1.5 moles CO2
4. Convert the moles of CO2 to volume at STP:
We are given that 1 mole of a gas occupies 22.4 dm3 at Standard Temperature and Pressure (STP).
So, the volume of CO2 produced can be calculated as follows:
1.5 moles CO2 * 22.4 dm3/mole = 33.6 dm3
Therefore, the volume of CO2 produced from 0.5 moles of Fe2O3 is 33.6 dm3 at STP.
