Question

 Aluminum reacts with iron (III) oxide to form aluminum oxide and iron metal in the following reaction:

 2  Al  +   1  Fe2O3  →    1  Al2O3  +   2  Fe

  Using the answer choices below, which set up would correctly complete the work for determining how many grams of aluminum are needed to produce 58.0 g of iron metal?

58.0 g Fe   x    1 mole Fe       X   ????   X      26.98 g Al
                 55.85 g Fe                                1 mol Al

 

MM Al: 26.98 g/mol

MM Fe2O3: 159.7 g/mol

MM Al2O3: 101.96 g/mol

MM Fe: 55.85 g/mol

a

1 mol Al/ 26.98 g Al

b

1 mol Fe/
55.85 g Fe

c

2 mol Al/
2 mol Fe

d

2 mol Fe/
2 mol Al
