How many moles of aluminum oxide (Al2O3) are produced by reacting 5 moles of iron oxide (FeO)?
2AI+ 3FeO --> 3Fe + 1Al₂O3

Answer:

1.67 moles Al₂O₃

Explanation:

To find the amount of aluminum oxide produced, you need to start with 5 moles FeO and multiply it by the mole-to-mole ratio displaying the relationship between moles FeO and moles Al₂O₃. This ratio incorporates the coefficients from the equation. Remember, make sure to write the ratio in a way that allows for the cancellation of moles FeO.

2 Al + 3 FeO ---> 3 Fe + 1 Al₂O₃

5 moles FeO          1 mole Al₂O₃
--------------------  x  ----------------------  = 1.67 moles AlO
                              3 moles FeO
