Question

When aluminum metal reacts with copper (ll) sulfate to produce aluminum sulfate and copper metal, what is the coefficient for copper(ll) sulfate when the equation is balanced?

Answer 1

The coefficient for copper (II) sulfate is 3 when the equation is balanced.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the reaction:

3Al(s) + 3CuSO₄ (aq) → 3Cu(s) + Al₃(SO₄)₃ (aq)
