if 75 g of oxygen react how many grams of aluminum are required

Sagot :

Answer:

84.24 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of oxygen = 75 g

Mass of Al required to react = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

4Al + 3O₂     →   2Al₂O₃

Number of moles of oxygen:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 75 g/ 32 g/mol

Number of moles = 2.34 mol

Now we will compare the moles of oxygen with Al.

                         O₂         :          Al

                          3          :             4

                       2.34        :         4/3×2.34 = 3.12 mol

Mass of Al required:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 3.12 mol × 27 g/mol

Mass = 84.24 g
