Question

The reaction between iron(II) oxide and carbon monoxide produces iron and carbon dioxide. How many moles of iron can be obtained when 2.75 mol FeO reacts with an excess of CO ?

Answer 1

2.75 mol

Step-by-step explanation:

We start with the balanced chemical equation

`FeO+CO--->CO_(2) +Fe`

Clearlt from here we can see that one mole of FeO produces one mole of iron. Thereore it follows that 2.75 mol of FeO will produce 2.75 mol of iron in excess CO
