First a balanced reaction equation must be established:
4Al _{(s)}    +   3 O_{2}  _{(g)}     →    2 Al_{2} O_{3}

Now if mass of aluminum = 145 g
the moles of aluminum = (MASS) ÷ (MOLAR MASS) = 145 g ÷ 30 g/mol
                                                                                    =  4.83 mols

Now the mole ratio of Al : O₂ based on the equation is  4 : 3  
                                                                [4Al  + 3 O₂ → 2 Al₂O₃]

∴ if moles of Al = 4.83 moles
  then moles of O₂ = (4.83 mol ÷ 4) × 3
                              =  3.63 mol   (to  2 sig. fig.) 

Thus it can be concluded that 3.63 moles of oxygen is needed to react completely with 145 g of aluminum.

Draw the Lewis structure for methane (CH4) and ethane (C2H6) in the box below. Then predict which would have the higher boiling
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

Ethane would have a higher boiling point.

Explanation:

In this case, for the lewis structures, we have to keep in mind that all atoms must have <u>8 electrons</u> (except hydrogen). Additionally, each carbon would have <u>4 valence electrons</u>, with this in mind, for methane we have to put the hydrogens around the carbon, and with this structure, we will have 8 electrons for the carbon. In ethane, we will have a bond between the carbons, therefore we have to put three hydrogens around each carbon to obtain 8 electrons for each carbon.

Now, the main difference between methane and ethane is an <u>additional carbon</u>. In ethane, we have an additional carbon, therefore due to this additional carbon, we will have <u>more area of interaction</u> for ethane. If we have more area of interaction we have to give <u>more energy</u> to the molecule to convert from liquid to gas, so, the ethane will have a higher boiling point.

I hope it helps!
