Answer:

the stoichiometric coefficient for cobalt is 3

Explanation:

the unbalanced reaction would be

Co(NO₃)₂+ Al → Al(NO₃)₃ + Co

One way to solve is to build a system of linear equations for each element (or group as NO₃) , knowing that the number of atoms of each element is conserved.

For smaller reactions a quick way to solve it can be:

- First the Co as product and as reactant needs to have the same stoichiometric coefficient

- Then the Al as product and as reactant needs to have the same stoichiometric coefficient

- After that we look at the nitrates . There are 2 as reactants and 3 as products . Since the common multiple is 6 then multiply the reactant by 3 and the product by 2.

Finally the balanced equation will be

3 Co(NO₃)₂+ 2 Al → 2 Al(NO₃)₃ + 3 Co

then the stoichiometric coefficient for cobalt is 3
