The mass for of aluminum that is produced by the decomposition of 5.0 Kg Al2O3 is 2647 g or 2.647 Kg
calculation
Write the equation for decomposition of Al2O3
Al2O3 = 2Al + 3 O2
find the moles of Al2O3 = mass/molar mass
convert 5 Kg to g = 5 x1000 = 5000 grams
molar mass of Al2O3 = 27 x2 + 16 x3 = 102 g/mol
moles =5000 g/ 102 g/mol = 49.0196 moles
by use of mole ratio between Al2O3 to Al which is 1:2 the moles of Al = 49.0196 x2 =98.0392 moles
mass of Al = moles x molar mass
= 98.0392 moles x 27g/mol = 2647 grams or 2647/1000 = 2.647 Kg
Answer:
148 grams of relative atomic mass
Explanation:
magnesium atomic mass : 24
nitrogen : 14
oxygen : 16
24 × 1
14 × 1 × 2
16 × 3 × 2
24 + 28 + 80 = 148 grams
