Chapter 17, Problem 13RQ

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Equation for chemical reaction between powdered aluminum and iron(III) oxide has to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Redox reactions are class of chemical reactions that occurs due to change in oxidation numbers of various elements. Simultaneous oxidation and reduction occurs in redox reactions. Oxidation takes place when oxidation number of element increases whereas reduction includes decrease in oxidation number of elements.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Occurrence for chemical reaction between powdered aluminum and iron(III) oxide has to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

Reactivity of metals is determined by activity series. In this series, more reactive metal is placed above less reactive metals. Reactivity of metals decreases from top to bottom in activity series.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether reaction occurs between powdered iron and aluminum oxide or not has to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

Refer to part (b).

(d)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether reaction occurs between powdered aluminum and chromium(III) oxide or not has to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

Refer to part (b).

55. Although copper can be found in its elemental form in nature, it is often extracted from carbonate or oxide ores. a. Why is copper found in its elemental form but iron is not? b. One method of extracting copper from its oxide carbonate ore involves the reaction of copper(II) carbonate with dilute sulfuric acid. The resulting copper compound is then reacted with iron, which forms an iron(II) compound. Write a balanced chemical equation for each of these reactions.
