Question

Insert your values for x, y, z, & n into KxFey(C2O4)z·nH2O and provide the correct
coefficients to balance the following equation:
___ Fe(NH4)2(SO4)2·6H2O + ___ H2C2O4 + ___ K2C2O4 + ___ H2O2

___ KxFey(C2O4)z·nH2O + ___ (NH4)2SO4 + ___ H2SO4 + ___ H2O

Answer 1

I can't make heads or tails of this question. Do you have one equation or two? If equations they are, where are the arrows. Is there a difference between the top two lines and the lower two lines?

Answer 2

you need to provide your values for x,y,z and n

Answer 3

Yeah I'm having trouble with this one! If x = 3, y = 1, z = 3, and n = 3... then redox reaction...difficult to say the least.

Answer 4

Dr. Bob, this is one equation where the arrow blongs between the top part of the equation, and the bottom part of the equation. So between ___ H2O2 and ___ KxFey(C2O4)z·nH2O.
To Find X, Y, Z, and N you need the mass percents which are 34.9 %, 11.4 %, 42.7%, and 11.0 % respectively. I know how to calculate the empirical formula but I feel as if I'm doing it wrong. I got K9Fe2(C2)4)5*6H20. I don't think that is correct because I cannot balance the equation properly

Answer 5

i did it perfectly fine,
i don't know wat it means by redox though..
