A man was out walking in the desert when a voice said to him, "Pick up some pebbles and put
them in your pocket, and tomorrow you will be both
happy and sad." The man obeyed. He stooped down and picked up a handful of pebbles and put them in his pocket. The next morning he reached into his pocket and found diamonds, sapphires,
rubies and emeralds. And he was both happy and sad. Happy he had taken some - sad
that he hadn't taken more.

HOW TO SOLVE A PROBLEM
Step I. Understand the Problem(Put Your Pencil Down)
Collect Relevant DataRead the Question
What You Have (Knowns)What You Want (Unknowns)
Step II. Choose an Appropriate StrategyAct It Out
Choose an OperationDraw a Picture
Guess and CheckLook for a Pattern
Make a Chart or TableMake an Organized ListUse Logical Reasoning
Work Backwards
Step III. Solve The Problem(Pick Up Your Pencil)
Step IV. Analyze Your ResultDoes My Answer Make Sense?

What is the mole ratio for each of the following:
Fe : O2
Fe : Fe2O3
O2 : Fe2O3
Fe O2+ 3 24 Fe2O3
How many grams of rust (Fe2O3) can be produced from the complete corrosion of 15 grams of iron?
Step 1: Read the Question and Confirm Equation is Balanced
