First, calculate the molar masses by looking up the atomic weights of all involved elements.
Atomic weight manganese = 54.938044
Atomic weight oxygen = 15.999
Atomic weight aluminium = 26.981539
Molar mass MnO2 = 54.938044 + 2 * 15.999 = 86.936044 g/mol
Now determine the number of moles of MnO2 we have
30.0 g / 86.936044 g/mol = 0.345081265 mol
Looking at the balanced equation
3MnO2+4Al→3Mn+2Al2O3
it's obvious that for every 3 moles of MnO2, it takes 4 moles of Al. So
0.345081265 mol / 3 * 4 = 0.460108353 mol
So we need 0.460108353 moles of Al to perform the reaction. Now multiply by the atomic weight of aluminum.
0.460108353 mol * 26.981539 g/mol = 12.41443146 g
Finally, round to 3 significant figures, giving 12.4 g</span>
Answer:
I'm pretty sure this is a question about your opinion so there is no wrong answer! Just think about the question and if you were in those shoes. There is no right or wrong answer! :)
Explanation:
1 inch is equivalent to 0.0254 meters. To find the answer, multiply the number of inches by 0.0254.
349.5 x 0.0254 = 8.8773
