Answer:
8.25 moles
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Number of moles of Al produced = 11 moles
Unknown:
Number of moles of oxygen produced = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we need to understand the problem.
The decomposition of an aluminium oxide must has produced oxygen and aluminium,
2Al₂O₃ → 4Al + 3O₂
now since the known is the oxygen gas; we can find the unknown aluminium:
3 mole of O₂ was produced with 4 mole of Al
x mole of O₂ will be produced with 11 moles of Al
x = [tex]\frac{3 x 11}{4}[/tex] = 8.25 moles
