Question

ΔH for the reaction below is -826.0 kJ/mol. Calculate the heat change when a 69.03-g sample of iron is reacted.4Fe(s) + 3 O2(g) --> Fe2O3(s)a. - 255.2 kJb. -510.5 kJc. -1020.9 kJd. -2042 kJe. -2.851 x 10^4 kJ

Answer 1

c. -1020.9 kJ

Step-by-step explanation:

4Fe (s) + 3 O₂ (g) --> 2 Fe₂O₃(s) ΔH = -826.0 kJ/mol.

atomic weight of iron = 56

69.03 g = 69.03 / 56

= 1.23268 moles

Heat released by 1.23268 moles

= 1.23268 x 826.0

= -1020.9 kJ .
