Select the TRUE statements below regarding the coordination compound prepared in lab. Group of answer choices The coordination compound contained a complex ion that was covalently bonded to sulfate. The ligand must have at least one unshared pair of valence electrons in order to covalently bond with transition metal in the coordination compound. Ethanol was used during crystallization of the coordination compound because the compound is soluble in ethanol. The ammonia is covalently bonded to the transition metal. The colors of many coordination compounds are the result of light absorption by the d electrons on the transition metal.

first, consult an activity series chart to determine if al is more reactive than fe. it is, so it will replace the fe. now, one can continue with the problem.

next, make sure you have a correctly balanced equation.

3feo + 2al ==> 3fe + al2o3

now, determine which reactant (feo or al) is in limiting supply.

moles feo present = 125 g x 1 mole/71.8 g = 1.74 moles

moles al present = 25.0 g x 1 mole/26.98 g = 0.927 moles

since from the balanced equation, it take 3 mol feo for every 2 mol al, al will be limiting.

you can determine this simply by dividing moles of each by their coefficient in the balanced equation. for example: 1.74/3 = 0.58 and 0.927/2 = 0.464. al is less, so it is limiting.

finally, using the stoichiometry in the balanced eq. determine mass of fe that can be produced from 0.927 moles of al.

0.927 moles al x 3 moles fe/2 moles al x 55.8 g/mole = 77.6 g
