Answer : The correct answer is 2.04 g of Al₂O₃ is produced.

Given : Mass of Al = 1.07 g Mass of MnO₂ = 4.63 g

Mass of Al₂O₃ = ?

Since there are two reactant given , LIMITING REAGENT need to be found .

Limiting Reagent is the that reactant which totally consumed when a reaction completes . The maximum amount of any product can be produced by Limiting Reagent .

Limiting reagent is identified as that reactant which produced less amount of product out of two reactants.

Following steps can be used to calculate mass of aluminum oxide .

Step 1 : To find mass of Al₂O₃ can be produced from Al

Following are the sub steps :

a) To find mole of Al

Mass of Al can be used to find mole of Al by using mole formula as:

$Mole (mol) = \frac{given mass (g)}{atomic mass \frac{g}{mol}}$

Mass of Al = 1.07 g Atomic mass of Al = 26.9 $\frac{g}{mol}$

Plugging value in mole formula :

$Mole = \frac{1.07 g}{26.9 \frac{g}{mol}}$

Mole = 0.040 mol

b) To find mole ratio of Al₂O₃ : Al

Mole ratio is calculated from balanced reaction

Mole of Al₂O₃ in balanced reaction = 2

Mole of Al in balanced reaction = 4

Hence mole ratio of Al₂O₃ : Al = 2 : 4 = 1 : 2

c) To find mole of Al₂O₃

Mole of Al₂O₃ can be calculated using mole of Al and mole ratio

$Mole of Al_2O_3 = 0.040 mol * \frac{1}{2}$

Mole of Al₂O₃ = 0.020 mol

d) To find mass of Al₂O₃

Mass of Al₂O₃ can be find from its mole using mole formula as :

Molar mass of Al₂O₃ = 101.96 $\frac{g}{mol}$

$0.020 mol = \frac{mass of Al_2O_3}{101.96 \frac{g}{mol}}$

Multiplying both side by 101.96 $\frac{g}{mol}$

$0.020 mol * 101.96 \frac{g}{mol} = \frac{mass of Al }{101.96 \frac{g}{mol}} *101.96 \frac{g}{mol}$

Mass of Al₂O₃= 2.04 g

Hence mass of Al₂O₃ produced by 1.07 g of Al = 2.04 g.

Step 2 ) To find mass of Al₂O₃ from MnO₂

Same steps can be used to find mass of Al₂O₃ from mass of MnO₂

a) To find mole of MnO₂

Molar mass of MnO₂ = 86.9 $\frac{g}{mol}$

$Mole = \frac{4.63 g}{86.9\frac{g}{mol}}$

Mole = 0.053 mol

b) To find mole ratio of Al₂O₃ : MnO₂

Mole of Al₂O₃ in balanced reaction = 2

Mole of MnO₂ in balanced reaction = 3

Hence mole ratio of Al₂O₃ : MnO₂ = 2 : 3

c) To find mole of Al₂O₃

$Mole of Al_2O_3 = 0.053 mol * \frac{2}{3}$

Mole of Al₂O₃ = 0.035 mol

d) To find mass of Al₂O₃

$0.035 mol = \frac{mass of Al_2O_3}{101.96\frac{g}{mol}}$

Multiplying both side by 101.96 $\frac{g}{mol}$

$0.035 mol * 101.96 \frac{g}{mol} = \frac{mass of Al_2O_3}{101.96 \frac{g}{mol}} *101.96 \frac{g}{mol}$

Mass of Al₂O₃= 3.57 g

Hence mass of Al₂O₃ produced by 4.63 g of MnO₂ = 3.57 g

Step 3 : To find limiting reagent and mass of Al₂O₃ .

Since Al produced less amount of Al2O3 2.04 g than MnO2 which is 3.57 g , so Al is LIMITING REAGENT .

Hence the amount of Al₂O₃ produced by Al will be considered which is 2.04 g.

passed in september 1935, these laws are known as nuremberg laws. they forbid jews from marrying but not directly forced them to divorce aryans. what is most noticeable is the fact that the jews were defranchised, meaning by this that they were not expected to have any civil rights, including the right to vote. the right answer is deprived of the right to vote.
