1. Calculate the moles of Fe3O4 and FeO in the initial mixture:
The molar mass of Fe3O4 = 55.845 g/mol
Moles of Fe3O4 = 3.970 g / 55.845 g/mol = 0.0710 mol
The molar mass of FeO = 71.844 g/mol
Moles of FeO = 3.970 g - 0.0710 mol * 231.53 g/mol = 0.0116 mol
2. Calculate the moles of oxygen in the initial mixture:
For Fe3O4, there are 4 oxygen atoms per molecule.
Moles of oxygen from Fe3O4 = 0.0710 mol * 4 = 0.284 mol
For FeO, there is 1 oxygen atom per molecule.
Moles of oxygen from FeO = 0.0116 mol * 1 = 0.0116 mol
Total moles of oxygen in the initial mixture = 0.284 mol + 0.0116 mol = 0.2956 mol
3. Calculate the moles of oxygen in the final product, Fe2O3:
The molar mass of Fe2O3 = 159.69 g/mol
Moles of Fe2O3 = 4.195 g / 159.69 g/mol = 0.0263 mol
For Fe2O3, there are 3 oxygen atoms per molecule.
Moles of oxygen in Fe2O3 = 0.0263 mol * 3 = 0.0789 mol
4. Calculate the difference in moles of oxygen:
Moles of oxygen reacted = Moles of oxygen in initial mixture - Moles of oxygen in final product
Moles of oxygen reacted = 0.2956 mol - 0.0789 mol = 0.2167 mol
5. Calculate the mass of oxygen reacted:
The molar mass of oxygen = 16 g/mol
Mass of oxygen reacted = 0.2167 mol * 16 g/mol = 3.467 g
Therefore, the mass of oxygen that reacted is 3.467 g.
