| Write the reaction equations for obtaining Fe2O3 from FeCl3. How much iron (III) chloride by weight is required to obtain 16 g of iron (III) oxide?
Given:
m (Fe2O3) = 16 g
To find:
m (FeCl3) -?
Decision:
1) FeCl3 + 3NaOH => Fe (OH) 3 ↓ + 3NaCl;
2Fe (OH) 3 => Fe2O3 + 3H2O;
2) M (Fe2O3) = Mr (Fe2O3) = Ar (Fe) * N (Fe) + Ar (O) * N (O) = 56 * 2 + 16 * 3 = 160 g / mol;
3) n (Fe2O3) = m (Fe2O3) / M (Fe2O3) = 16/160 = 0.1 mol;
4) n (Fe (OH) 3) = n (Fe2O3) * 2 = 0.1 * 2 = 0.2 mol;
5) n (FeCl3) = n (Fe (OH) 3) = 0.2 mol;
6) M (FeCl3) = Mr (FeCl3) = Ar (Fe) * N (Fe) + Ar (Cl) * N (Cl) = 56 * 1 + 35.5 * 3 = 162.5 g / mol;
7) m (FeCl3) = n (FeCl3) * M (FeCl3) = 0.2 * 162.5 = 32.5 g.
Answer: The mass of FeCl3 is 32.5 g.
