i got this formula

[itex]
2Fe +3O_2 -> 2FeO_3
[/itex]

how many grams of Fe and litters of oxigen do i need
in order to get 0.5 kilogram of

[itex]
Fe_2O_3
[/itex]

i can find how much grams weighs each mole of each molecule?

i don't know how to do the rest

??

ok i understand
3 moles of
[itex]
O_2
[/itex]
can react at most with 2 moles of Fehow do i transform the volume of a gas into grams?
 
  • #4
pV=nRT, ideal gas equation.
 
  • #5
ok by pst 22.4 litters for every mole of gas
i can find the weight of each mole
what now?

Now you start thinking on your own, we are not here to spoonfeed you.

How many moles of product?

How many moles of reactants needed?
