3 Chlorine ions are required to bond with one aluminum ion.

In ionic bonds, metals atoms loses all its outermost shell electrons to form a cation. While, non metal atoms gains however many electrons in order to make its outermost electron shell be 8 (or 2 if there's only one shell).

Therefore, form the periodic table, we can see that aluminum has a atomic number of 13, which makes its electron arrangement be 2,8,3. So, in order to form a aluminum ion, an Al atom must lose 3 electrons. On the other hand, Chlorine has a atomic number of 17, which means it has the electron configuration of 2,8,7. It has to gain only 1 electron to have 8 outermost shell electron.

Thereofre, 3 Chlorine atom are required to gain all 3 electrons given out by just 1 aluminum ion.

Answer:

8 moles of C

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following equation was obtained:

3A + 2B —> 6C

From the equation above,

3 moles of A reacted to produce 6 moles of C.

Thus, the number of mole of C produced by reacting 4 moles of A can be obtained as follow:

From the equation above,

3 moles of A reacted to produce 6 moles of C.

Therefore, 4 moles of C will react to produce = (4 × 6)/3 = 8 moles of C

Thus, 8 moles of C can be obtained from the reaction of 4 moles of A with excess B
