PLEASE HELP QUICKLY BUT CORRECT!!

You are asked to make 112 g of iron from iron oxide and excess carbon monoxide. Fe2O3 (s) + 3CO (g) → 2Fe (l) + 3CO2 (g) Approximately how many grams of iron oxide must you use? Question 5 options:
A. 720 g
B. 240 g
C. 107 g
D. 160 g

Respuesta :

calculate  the number of   moles  of  moles  of  iron  prepared
mole=  mass/RFM
RFM   of  iron  is =56  g/  mol
moles  of  iron prepared  is  therefore   112g /56g/mol=2moles
by  use  of  reacting  ratio between Fe2O3 to  Fe  that  is  1:2  therefore  moles of  Fe2O3  used  is  (1x2)/2+1 mole
mass  of  Fe2O3=RFM  x number  of  moles
RFM of Fe2O3=160g/mol
mass= 1 mole  x 160 g/.mol=160g (D)


Im taking the test. The answer is 160 g.
