Answer:

1.32 moles.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Density of Al = 2.70 g/cm³

Volume of Al = 13.2 cm³

Number of mole of Al =.?

Next, we shall determine the mass of Al.

This can be obtained as follow:

Density of Al = 2.70 g/cm³

Volume of Al = 13.2 cm³

Mass of Al =?

Density = mass / volume

2.7 = mass of Al / 13.2

Cross multiply

Mass of Al = 2.7 × 13.2

Mass of Al = 35.64 g

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of Al. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of Al = 35.64 g

Molar mass of Al = 27 g/mol

Number of mole of Al =?

Mole = mass / molar mass

Number of mole of Al = 35.64 / 27

Number of mole of Al = 1.32 moles

Thus, 1.32 moles of aluminum are present in the block of the metal.
