Chapter 7.8, Problem 7.62PP

Iron(III) oxide reacts with carbon to give iron and carbon monoxide.

${\text{Fe}}_{\text{2}}{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}\left(s\right)+\text{ 3C}\left(s\right)\to \text{2Fe}\left(s\right)+\text{ 3CO}\left(\text{g}\right)$

a. How many grams of C are required to react with 16.5 g of ${\text{Fe}}_{\text{2}}{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}$ ?
b. How many grams of CO are produced when 36.0 g of C reacts?
c. How many grams of Fe can be produced when 6.00 g of ${\text{Fe}}_{\text{2}}{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}$ reacts?
