Agitation, or stirring of the solute in the solvent increases the solubility of the solution
Answer:
0.8 mol.
Explanation:
- The balanced equation for the reaction between Al and FeO is represented as:
<em>2Al + 3FeO → 3Fe + Al₂O₃,</em>
It is clear that 2 mol of Al react with 3 mol of FeO to produce 3 mol of Fe and 1 mol of Al₂O₃.
<em><u>Using cross multiplication:</u></em>
2 mol of Al needs → 3 mol of FeO, from stichiometry.
??? mol of Al needs → 1.2 mol of FeO.
∴<em> The no. of moles of Al are needed to react completely with 1.2 mol of FeO </em>= (2 mol)(1.2 mol)/(3 mol) = <em>0.8 mol.</em>
