How many grams of CO are needed to react with an excess of Fe 2 O 3 to produce 209.7 g Fe?

Mass = 157.5 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of CO needed  = ?

Mass of Fe formed = 209.7 g

Solution:

Chemical equation:

3CO + F₂O₃   →       2Fe + 3CO₂

Number of moles of Fe:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 209.7 g/ 55.85 g/mol

Number of moles = 3.75 mol

Now we will compare the moles of iron and carbon monoxide.

                               Fe            :              CO

                                 2            :              3

                                3.75         ;             3/2×3.75 = 5.625 mol

Mass of CO:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 5.625 mol × 28 g/mol

Mass = 157.5 g

it is a solid
