Write the balanced equation for reduction of iron (III) oxide by carbon monoxide?

Open in App

Solution

When Iron(III) oxide reacts with carbon monoxide, Iron(III) oxide is reduced to iron metal and carbon dioxide gas is evolved.
The chemical equation can be written as :
${Fe}_{2} O_{3} (s) + 3 CO (g) \to 2 Fe (s) + 3 {CO}_{2} (g) (Iron (III) (Carbon (Iron) (Carbon dioxide) oxide) monoxide)$
