Given the following equation, what is the correct form of the conversion factor needed to convert the number of moles o2 to the number of moles of fe reacted?

4fe + 3o2 --> 2fe2o3

4 mol fe
3 mol o2

2 mol fe2o3
4 mol fe

4 mol fe
2 mol fe2o3

3 mol o2
2 mol fe2o3

Option A says we have 4 moles of Fe for each 3 moles O2

This is correct For 3 moles of O2 consumed, we need 4 moles of Fe to be reacted

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Step 2: The balanced equation

4Fe + 3O2 → 2Fe2O3

Step 3: Calculate the mol ratio

For 3 moles O2 we'll have 4 moles Fe

Option A says we have 4 moles of Fe for each 3 moles O2

This is correct For 3 moles of O2 consumed, we need 4 moles of Fe to be reacted

Option b says we have 2 mole Fe2O3 for each 4 moles Fe

This doesnt say anything about O2. So doesn't apply for this question.

Option C says we have 4 moles of Fe for each 2 moles Fe2O3

This is the same as option B, so doesn't apply for this question.

Option D says for each 3 moles of O2 we have 2 Fe2O3

This is true, but doesn't say anything about Fe so doesn't apply here.

answer

i think the answer is a) as air pressure in an area increases, the density of the gas particles in that area decreases.

hope it
