Answer:

No, Stephanie is incorrect. Formation of petroleum cannot take place under the presence of oxygen.

Explanation:

Since, the petroleum is fossil product. Fossil fuel are formed under high pressure and temperature with absence of oxygen for longer period. so the way she is performing is completely incorrect. With the presence of oxygen in no way petroleum will be formed. The temperature and pressure should be in different combination for the formation of the petroleum. Along with the layers of sediments to maintain the pressure is required.

Based on the balanced equation, the molar ratio of CuCl2 to Al should be
Tju [1.3M]
1) The chemical equation is:
 

Al +  CuCl2 ---> Cu + AlCl3


2) You have to balance the equation to state the coefficients:


2Al + 3CuCl2 ---> 3Cu + 2Al Cl3


3) Now the coefficients tell you the molar ratios.

2 mol Al : 3 mol CuCl2 : 3 mol Cu : 2 mol AlCl3



4) The molar ratio of CuCl2 to Al is:


3 mol Cu Cl2 / 2 mol Al = 3/2 = 1.5
