The thermite reaction occurs when iron(III) oxide reacts with solid aluminum. The reaction is so hot that molten iron forms as a product.
>
Fe2O3(s) + Al(s) → Fe(C) + Al2O3(s)
What mass of aluminum should be used in order to completely
consume 10.0 g Fe2O3(s)? If the reaction described produces 5.3 g
Al2O3(s), what is the percent yield?

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, for the given balanced reaction:

For 10.0 g of iron (III) oxide (molar mass = 160 g/mol), based on the 1:2 mole ratio with Al (atomic mass = 27 g/mol), the required mass is then:

Moreover, as 5.3 g of aluminum oxide are actually yielded, from the 10.0 g of iron (III) oxide, we can compute the theoretical mass of aluminum oxide (molar mass = 102 g/mol) via their 1:1 mole ratio:

Thus, the percent yield (actual/theoretical*100%) turns out:

the food using pesticides in the future will harm you by giving you diseases like cancer or something since they have things that we should not eat in it like chemicals or pesticides. that is why organic food is more expensive because they take the time to make it right and healthy for you to eat.
