Question

The fuel used to power the booster rockets on space shuttles is a mixture of aluminum metal and ammonium perchlorate. The following balanced equation represents the reaction.. 3Al + 3NH4ClO4 → Al2O3 + AlCl3 + 3NO + 6H2O How many moles of water are produced from 373 mol Al?

Answer 1

Answer:

Therefore 373 mole of Al produce 746 mole of water.

Explanation:

Given reaction is

3 Al+3NH₄ClO₄→Al₂O₃+AlCl₃+3NO+6H₂O

From the above reaction it is clear that 3 mole of Al produce 6 mole of water.

Therefore

3 mole of Al produce 6 mole of water.

1 mole of Al produce $\frac{6}{3}$ mole of water.

373 mole of Al produce $\frac{6\times 373}{3}$ mole of water.

                                      = 746 mole of water.

Therefore 373 mole of Al produce 746 mole of water.
