1. 9.36 moles S
2. 0.213 moles Al
Further explanation
Given
Reaction
2Al+3S⇒Al₂S₃
Required
moles of S
moles of Al
Solution
The reaction coefficient in a chemical equation shows the mole ratio of the compounds involved in the reaction (reactants or products)
From equation, mol ratio of Al₂S₃ : S = 1 : 3, so mol S :
= 3/1 x mol Al₂S₃
= 3/1 x 3.12
= 9.36 moles S
From equation, mol ratio of Al : S = 2 : 3, so mol Al :
= 2/3 x mol S
= 2/3 x 0.32
= 0.213 moles Al
