    The mass of oxygen that would be required to produce enough CO which completely reduces 1.6 kg\[F{{e}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}\](at. mass\[Fe=56\]), is

    A)  240 g          

    B)  480 g

    C)  720g           

    D)  960g

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     \[3C+\frac{3}{2}{{O}_{2}}\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}3CO\] \[F{{e}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}+3CO\xrightarrow[{}]{{}}2Fe+3C{{O}_{2}}\] 1 mole of\[F{{e}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}\equiv 3\]mole of\[CO\equiv \frac{3}{2}\]mole of\[{{O}_{2}}\] \[\because \]160 g of\[F{{e}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}\]require \[{{O}_{2}}=\frac{3}{2}\times 32=48g\] \[\therefore \]1.60 kg of\[F{{e}_{2}}{{O}_{3}}\]will require \[{{O}_{2}}=480\text{ }g\]
