Fe₃o₄ reacts with co according to the equation
fe₃o₄ + co --> fe + co₂ (unbalanced)
if 478.9 g fe₃o₄ is reacted with excess co, what mass of co₂ will be produced assuming 100% yield?
1. 91.02 g co₂
2. 182.05 g co₂
3. 364.1 g co₂
4. none of these
5. 273.1 g co₂

Option 3.

364.1 g of CO₂ are produced by the reaction

Explanation:

Let's verify the balance equation for this reaction:

Fe₃O₄  +   4 CO  →  3 Fe   +   4CO₂

Let's convert the mass of Fe₃O₄ to moles (mass / molar mass)

478.9 g / 231.55 g/mol  = 2.07 moles

Ratio is 1:4, so let's make a rule of three to determine the moles of CO₂ produced and then its mass.

1 mol of Fe₃O₄ is needed to produce 4 moles of CO₂

Then, 2.07 moles of Fe₃O₄ will produce (2.07  .4) /1 = 8.27 moles of CO₂.

Molar mass . moles = mass

44 g/mol . 8.27 mol = 364 g of CO₂

explanation:

the largest database of organic compounds lists about 10 million substances, which include compounds originating from living organisms and those synthesized by chemists. the number of potential organic compounds has been estimated at 1060—an astronomically high number. the existence of so many organic molecules is a consequence of the ability of carbon atoms to form up to four strong bonds to other carbon atoms, resulting in chains and rings of many different sizes, shapes, and complexities. the simplest organic compounds contain only the elements carbon and hydrogen, and are called hydrocarbons. even though they are composed of only two types of atoms, there is a wide variety of hydrocarbons because they may consist of varying lengths of chains, branched chains, and rings of carbon atoms, or combinations of these structures. in addition, hydrocarbons may differ in the types of carbon-carbon bonds present in their molecules. many hydrocarbons are found in plants, animals, and their fossils; other hydrocarbons have been prepared in the laboratory. we use hydrocarbons every day, mainly as fuels, such as natural gas, acetylene, propane, butane, and the principal components of gasoline, diesel fuel, and heating oil. the familiar plastics polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene are also hydrocarbons. we can distinguish several types of hydrocarbons by differences in the bonding between carbon atoms. this leads to differences in geometries and in the hybridization of the carbon orbitals.
