-753kJ of energy are involved

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

Fe₂O₃ (s) + 2 Al (s) → Al₂O₃ (s) + 2 Fe (s) ΔH°rxn = - 852 kJ

When 2 moles of Fe are produced, there are released - 852kJ.

98.7g of Fe are:

98.7g Fe * (1mol / 55.845g) = 1.767 moles of Fe

If 2 moles of Fe are producen when - 852 kJ of energy are involved, 1.767 moles of Fe envolved:

1.767mol * (-852kJ / 2mol Fe) = - 753kJ of energy are involved
