Question

If you want to make 8.00 moles of AlF₃ how many moles of F₂ will you need, using the following balanced chemical equation? 2 Al + 3 F₂ → 2 AlF₃

Answer 1

Answer:

You will need 12 moles of F2 if you want to make 8 moles of AlF3.

Explanation:

It takes 3 moles F2 to make 2 moles of AlF3 (this will be our mole ratio)

2 moles AlF3/3 moles F2 =8 moles AlF3/x moles AlF3.

x=12 moles AlF3
