Answer:

99.5 moles

Step-by-step explanation:

The reaction equation is;

2Al(s) + 3H2SO4(aq) ----------> Al2(SO4)3(aq) + 3H2(g)

From the balanced reaction equation;

2 moles of aluminium reacts with 3 moles of acid

Therefore 66.3 moles of Al reacts with x moles of acid

66.3 * 3 = 2x

x = 99.45 moles

x = 99.5 moles
