✔ 最佳答案
Iron Oxide (Ferric Oxide) + Aluminum ➜ Iron + Aluminum Oxide
Fe₂O₃ + 2Al ➜ 2Fe + Al₂O₃
molecular weights:
Fe = 55.85
O = 15.99
Al = 26.98
Fe₂O₃ = 2•55.85 + 3•15.99 = 111.7+47.97 = 159.67
2Al = 53.96
2Fe = 111.7
Al₂O₃ = 53.96+ 47.97 = 101.93
check: 159.67+ 53.96 = 111.7+ 101.93 = 213.63
159.67 g of Fe₂O₃ + 53.96 g of Al ➜ 111.7 g of Fe + 101.93 g of Al₂O₃
Given that you produce 171.7 g of iron from 500.0 g Al and 500.0 g of
Fe2O3, calculate the mass of iron that should be produced from this reaction
first which is the limiting reactant.
from above, that is the Fe₂O₃ as about a third as much of Al is needed
ratio of Fe to Fe₂O₃ is 111.7/159.67
therefore 111.7/159.67 = x/500
x = 349.8 g of Fe
but you get only 171.7 g so your actual yield is much lower.
