Question
4 Al (S) +3O 2(g) 2Al 2 O 3 (s) How many grams of A*l_{2} * O_{3} can be formed from 43.82 g of Al and 95.16 g of O_{2} ? ( Hint : You need to determine which one is the limiting reactant ).
Expert Solution
Step 1

The balanced reaction given is,

=> 4 Al (s) + 2 O2 (g) 2 Al2O3 (s)

Given: Mass of Al taken = 43.82 g.

And mass of O2 taken = 95.16 g.

Since moles = MassMolar mass=> Moles of Al taken = 43.8227 = 1.623 mol approx.And moles of O2 taken = 95.1632 = 2.97375 mol.
