Balanced Reaction is:
4 Fe+3O22 Fe2O3

5.6 gm 5.6 gm

(5.656) (5.632)

0.1 mole0.175 mole

4 moles Fe reacts with 3 moles of O2 .

0.1 mole Fe reacts with 3×0.14moles O2

Here, Fe is limiting reagent.

4 moles of Fe form 2 moles of Fe2O3

Mole of Fe2O3 formed by 0.1 moleFe=24×0.10
=0.05 mole

The correct option is C.
