Answer : The correct option is, (C) C to Fe
Explanation :
The given chemical reaction is:
[tex]2Fe_2O_3+3C\rightarrow 4Fe+3CO_2[/tex]
By the stiochiometry we can say that, 2 moles of [tex]Fe_2O_3[/tex] react with 3 moles of C to gives 4 moles of Fe and 3 moles of [tex]CO_2[/tex].
From the balanced chemical reaction we conclude that,
As, 3 moles of C produces 4 moles of Fe
So, 1 mole of C produces [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex] moles of Fe
That means, the moles of ratio of C to Fe is 4 : 3
Therefore, the correct option is (C) C to Fe
