Tungsten is extracted from tungsten(VI) oxide by heating it with hydrogen gas:
WO3+3H2→W+3H2O \text{WO}_3 + 3\text{H}_2 \rightarrow \text{W} + 3\text{H}_2\text{O} WO3+3H2→W+3H2OExplain why this is an example of a redox reaction.
Calculate the mass of tungsten that can be made from 454545 tonnes of tungsten(VI) oxide.
WO3+3H2→W+3H2O \text{WO}_3 + 3\text{H}_2 \rightarrow \text{W} + 3\text{H}_2\text{O} WO3+3H2→W+3H2OGive your answer to 2 significant figures.
Relative atomic mass (ArA_rAr): W=184\text{W} = 184W=184 Relative formula mass (MrM_rMr): WO3=232\text{WO}_3 = 232WO3=232
