Here's the equation:
<span>Fe2 O3 + 2Al → 2Fe + Al2 O3 
</span>
Here's the question.
What mass of Al will react with 150g of Fe2 O3? 

<span>In every 2 moles Al you need 1 mole Fe2O3 </span>

<span>moles = mass / molar mass </span>
<span>moles Fe2O3 = 150 g / 159.69 g/mol </span>
<span>= 0.9393 moles </span>

<span>moles Al needed = 2 x moles Fe2O3 </span>
<span>= 2 x 0.9393 mol </span>
<span>= 1.879 moles Al needed </span>

<span>mass = molar mass x moles </span>
<span>mass Al = 26.98 g/mol x 1.879 mol </span>
<span>= 50.69 g </span>
<span>= 51 g (2 sig figs) 
</span>
So the <span>mass of Al that will react with 150g of Fe2 O3 is 51 grams.</span>

Describe the pattern that thermal energy follows as it moves
mars1129 [50]
When you bring two objects of different temperature together, energy will always be transferred from the hotter to the cooler object.  The objects will exchange thermal energy, until thermal equilibrium<span> is reached, i.e. until their temperatures are equal.  We say that </span>heat<span>flows from the hotter to the cooler object.  </span><span>Heat is energy on the move.</span> <span> 
</span>Units of heat are units of energy.  The SI unit of energy is Joule.  Other often encountered units of energy are 1 Cal = 1 kcal = 4186 J, 1 cal = 4.186 J, 1 Btu = 1054 J.

Without an external agent doing work, heat will always flow from a hotter to a cooler object.  Two objects of different temperature always interact.  There are three different ways for heat to flow from one object to another.  They are conduction, convection, and radiation.

*WILL MARK BRAINLIEST!<br> Why is it difficult for us to use fusion reactions to produce energy?
kolbaska11 [484]
Fusion occurs constantly on our sun, which produces most of its energy via the nuclear fusion of hydrogen into helium. Neither do fusion reactions produce the large amounts of dangerous radioactive waste that fission reactions do. That's why it's such a dreamy source of energy.
