7 0

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

What i have shown below in the image attached is a hypothetical nuclear fusion reaction that attempts to produce a gold nucleus by fusion of copper and barium.

This is not possible because nuclear fusion can only occur with two light nuclei and not two heavy nuclei such as copper and barium.

Hence, this reaction is not possible.

How many moles of aluminum oxide would form if 12.5 moles of aluminum burned​
jarptica [38.1K]
<h3>Al + O2 -> Al2O3</h3>

Balance it:

<h3>2Al + 3O2 -> 2Al2O3</h3><h3 />

So you need 2 Al and 3 O2 to make 2 Al2O3 (aluminum oxide).

I'm going to assume you have all the O2 you need.

Since 2 mols of Al is needed to make 2 mols of the product, it's a 1:1 ratio. You get as much aluminum oxide for as much aluminum you burn.

So 12.5 mols if there is not a lack of the O2.
