Hello Paulinej A) i) 2Fe + O2 -> 2FeO ii) 2Fe + 3O2 -> 2Fe2O3 iii) Fe2+ + 2e- -> Fe O2 + 2e- -> 2O- Fe3+ + 3e- -> Fe B) The process of converting liquid ammonia to gaseous ammonia is an endothermic reaction. An endothermic reaction requires heat to make it start. At its most simplest form in a refrigerator, ammonia gas is compressed to a liquid and then circulated around pipes at the back of the refrigerator, as the liquid evaporates to a gas it cools the fridge. The refrigerator is cooled because heat is taken from inside the refrigerator to convert the ammonia from liquid form to a gaseous form.
