How many moles of Fe are needed for the reaction of 12.0
moles of O2?

The balanced reaction equation is:

Initial moles of oxygen reactant (given) =  

12.0

m

According to the balanced equation the iron and oxygen reactants combine in a 4:3 molar ratio. Therefore for complete consumption of both reactants we require:

Initial moles of iron reactant =

answer:

the reaction is type of combination reaction.

explanation:

on the product side, there are 2 molecules of bonded to fe   which means one atom of fe are combined two molecules of . so, balanced chemical equation becomes :

this reaction follows the reaction type of combination reaction. a combination reaction is defined as chemical reaction in which reactants combines together to form a single product.

idk what is it? is this a question that you know the answer or u dont
