Answer is: sulfuric acid is the limiting reactant.
Chemical reaction: 3H₂SO₄ + 2Al(OH)₃ → Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 6H₂O.
m(H₂SO₄) = 34 g.
n(H₂SO₄) = m(H₂SO₄) ÷ M(H₂SO₄).
n(H₂SO₄) = 34 g ÷ 98 g/mol.
n(H₂SO₄) = 0,346 mol.
m(Al(OH)₃) = 33 g.
n(Al(OH)₃) = 33 g ÷ 78 g/mol.
n(Al(OH)₃) = 0,423 mol.
From chemical reaction: n(H₂SO₄) : n(Al(OH)₃) = 3 : 2.

Balance the following redox equation in acidic solution using the smallest integers possible and select the correct coefficient

romanna [79]

Answer:

Coefficient of $H^{+}(aq)$ is more than 4

Explanation:

Oxidation: $Sn^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow Sn^{4+}(aq)$

Balance charge: $Sn^{2+}(aq)-2e^{-}\rightarrow Sn^{4+}(aq)$ ......(1)

Reduction: $Cr_{2}O_{7}^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow Cr^{3+}(aq)$

Balance Cr: $Cr_{2}O_{7}^{2-}(aq)\rightarrow 2Cr^{3+}(aq)$
Balance O and H in acidic medium: $Cr_{2}O_{7}^{2-}(aq)+14H^{+}(aq)\rightarrow 2Cr^{3+}(aq)+7H_{2}O(l)$
Balance charge: $Cr_{2}O_{7}^{2-}(aq)+14H^{+}(aq)+6e^{-}\rightarrow 2Cr^{3+}(aq)+7H_{2}O(l)$ .......(2)
