44g \ CO_{2} \ \ \ \rightarrow \ \ 12g \ C\\
19,2g \ CO_{2} \rightarrow \ \ \ x\\\\
x=\frac{19,2g*12g}{44g}\approx5,24g \ \ \ \Rightarrow \ \ n=\frac{5,24g}{12\frac{g}{mol}}\approx0,44mol\\\\\\
18g \ H_{2}O \ \ \ \rightarrow \ \ \ 2g \ H\\
5,89g \ H_{2}O \ \rightarrow \ \ y\\\\
y=\frac{5,89g*2g}{18g}\approx0,65g \ \ \ \ \Rightarrow \ \ n=\frac{0,65g}{1\frac{g}{mol}}=0,65mol\\\\\\
n_{C}:n_{H}=0,44:0,65\approx1:1\\\\

madam [21]
A large number in front of a compound designates how many units there are of that compound. Parentheses can be used to designate a special structure, where other molecules are attached to the larger, complex molecule.

Consider the reaction. 2 Al ( s ) + Fe 2 O 3 ( s ) heat −−→ Al 2 O 3 ( s ) + 2 Fe ( l ) If 17.3 kg Al reacts with an excess of F
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

32.7 kilograms of aluminium oxide  will be produced.

Explanation:

2 Al ( s ) + Fe_2O_3 ( s ) +heat\rightarrow Al_2O_3 ( s ) + 2 Fe ( l )

Mass of aluminum = 17.3 kg = 17300 g (1 kg = 1000 g )

Moles of aluminium = \frac{17300 g}{27 g/mol}=640.74 mol

According to reaction, 2 moles of aluminum gives 1 mole of aluminum oxide,then 640.74 moles of aluminum will give:

\frac{1}{2}\times 640.74 mol= 320.37 mol of aluminum oxide

Mass of 320.37 moles of aluminum oxides:

320.37 mol × 102 g/mol = 32,677.74 g = 32.67774 kg ≈ 32.7 kg

32.7 kilograms of aluminium oxide  will be produced.
