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.

Ben observes how quickly some dry wood is burning in a campfire. which term best relates to ben's observation?
Katyanochek1 [597]
I think this the the list of choices relating to the above question.
reaction rate 
<span>activation energy </span>
<span>collision theory </span>
<span>spontaneous reaction
</span>
The term that best relate to ben's observation is REACTION RATE.

Reaction rate is defined as the speed at which the chemical reaction proceeds. It either is the amount of concentration of a product in a given unit of time or the concentration of the reactant that is being consumed in a unit of time.
