How many moles of iron can be made from `Fe_(2)O_(3)` by the use of 16 mol of carbon monoxide in the following reaction :
`Fe_(2)O_(3) + 3CO to 2Fe + 3CO_(2)`

Explanation

To determine how many moles of iron (Fe) can be produced from 16 moles of carbon monoxide (CO) using the reaction:

\[ \text{Fe}_2\text{O}_3 + 3\text{CO} \rightarrow 2\text{Fe} + 3\text{CO}_2 \]

we can follow these steps:

### Step 1: Identify the stoichiometric ratios
From the balanced chemical equation, we see that:
