Gọi CT oxit sắt đó là FexOy.
PT: \(Fe_xO_y+yH_2\underrightarrow{t^o}xFe+yH_2O\)
Ta có: \(n_{Fe}=\dfrac{4,2}{56}=0,075\left(mol\right)\)
Theo PT: \(n_{Fe_xO_y}=\dfrac{1}{x}n_{Fe}=\dfrac{0,075}{x}\left(mol\right)\)
\(\Rightarrow M_{Fe_xO_y}=\dfrac{6}{\dfrac{0,075}{x}}=80x\left(g/mol\right)\)
\(\Rightarrow56x+16y=80x\Rightarrow24x=16y\Rightarrow\dfrac{x}{y}=\dfrac{2}{3}\)
Vậy: Oxit sắt đó là Fe2O3.
Theo PT: \(n_{H_2}=\dfrac{y}{x}n_{Fe}=\dfrac{3}{2}.0,075=0,1125\left(mol\right)\Rightarrow V_{H_2}=0,1125.22,4=2,52\left(l\right)\)
