Calculate the mass of carbon monoxide needed to reduce 16 tones of iron (111) oxide
Answers
1. Convert 16 tonnes of Fe2O3 to grams.
2. Convert g Fe2O3 to mols. mols = grams/molar mass
3. Using the coefficients in the balanced equationk convert mols Fe2o3 o mols CO.
4. Convert mols CO to grams. grams CO = mols CO x molar mass CO
