![### Chemical Reaction and Experiment Details
**Reaction:**
Combining 0.207 mol of Fe₂O₃ (iron(III) oxide) with excess carbon produced 18.8 g of Fe (iron).
**Balanced Chemical Equation:**
\[ \text{Fe}_2\text{O}_3 + 3 \text{C} \rightarrow 2 \text{Fe} + 3 \text{CO} \]
**Explanation:**
- **Reactants:**
- Fe₂O₃: Iron(III) oxide.
- C: Carbon.
- **Products:**
- Fe: Iron.
- CO: Carbon monoxide.
This equation represents a reduction reaction where iron(III) oxide is reduced to iron by carbon, which is oxidized to form carbon monoxide. The stoichiometry of the reaction shows that 1 mole of Fe₂O₃ reacts with 3 moles of carbon to produce 2 moles of iron and 3 moles of carbon monoxide.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F71857783-1c99-46cc-a49f-19b635638e96%2F15b41ab7-7e49-4c5b-a199-986b36286f97%2Ftm2x7mp_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
