Expert Solution
Step 1) Given data and molar masses

*  Given data=>

    Weight of each reactant is 25 g

* Molar masses=>

      molar mass of Na = 22.99 g/mol

      molar mass of Fe2O3 = 159.69 g/mol

 

Reaction=>

    6Na(s) +   Fe2O3(s)     -->    Na2O(s) + 2Fe(s) 

    25 g             25 g

 22.99g/mol   159.69g/mol
