Concept explainers

Stoichiometry

Stoichiometry is a chemical division that evaluates the quantitative content of the chemical process with the help of the reacting molecules or products taking part in the reaction. The term “stoicheion” in “Stoichiometry”, is an old Greek term for "element" whereas “metron” means "measure".

A 1.1324 g sample of magnetite ore was dissolved in concentrated HCl to give a solution that contained a mixture of Fe2+ and Fe3+. Nitric acid was added and the solution was boiled for a few minutes, which converted all of the iron to Fe3+. The Fe3+ was then precipitated as Fe2O3*xH2O by addition of NH3. After filtration and washing, the residue was ignited at a high temp to give 0.5394 g of pure Fe2O3. What is the percent Fe and the percent Fe3O4 in the sample?

An analyst was assigned to work a sample with minerals. This iron-containing sample was analyzed by dissolving a 1.3142g sample in concentrated HCl. The resulting solution was diluted with water and iron (III) was precipitated as the hydrated oxide Fe2O3 xH2O by the addition of HN3. After filtration and washing, the residue was calcined at high temperature to produce 0.5488g of pure Fe2O3 (159.69g / mol). Determine the following:a) the% Fe (55.847 g / mol) and the% Fe3O4 (231.54 g / mol) in the sample.
