Hi---Could someone please help me??? I am struggling. PLEASE explain your answers so I can follow you. Thanks to all. All help is greatly appreciated!! :)The smelting of ferric oxide to form elemental iron occurs at high temperatures in a blast furnace through a reaction sequence with carbon monoxide. In the first step, ferric oxide reacts with carbon monoxide to form Fe3O4. This substance reacts with more carbon carbon monoxide to form iron(II) oxide, which reacts with still more carbon monoxide to from molten iron. Carbon dioxide is also produced in each step. (a) Write an overall balanced equation for the iron-melting process.(b)How many grams of carbon monoxide are required to form 40.0 metric tons of iron from ferric oxide?
