How many iron atoms are reactants in this equation? 4Fe+ 302
2Fe20
Select one:
3
0
2
4


Answer :

Answer:

4 atoms of oxygen.

Explanation:

The given equation is :

[tex]4Fe+3O_2\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3[/tex]

Here Fe and O₂ are reactants and Fe₂O₃ is a product. It is a balanced chemical reaction in which the number of atoms on LHS are equal to number of atoms on RHS.

4 atoms of iron react with 3 atoms of oxygen to form iron oxide. Hence, there are 4 atoms of reactants in this equation.
