a student is watching a simulation of a rocket's flight. she notices that the rocket is dropping devices in flight. what are these "devices" most likely to be?
a.trajectories
b.satellites
c.used up rocket stages
d.exhaust from the combustion reactions

The balanced equation is

4Fe(s) +  3O2(g)  ---> 2Fe2O3(s)

here four moles of Fe will react with O2 to give 2 moles of Fe2O3

mass of Fe reacted = 33.4 grams

moles of Fe reacted = mass of Fe / atomic mass of Fe

moles of Fe reacted = 33.4 / 55.8 = 0.599 moles

moles of Fe2O3 formed = 0.5 X 0.599 = 0.2995 moles

so mass of Fe2O3 formed = moles X molar mass = 0.2995 X 159.69 = 47.83 g
