Answer:

0.185 moles of AlN

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is:

2Al + N₂ → 2AlN

This reaction indicates that 2 mol of aluminum can react to 1 mol of nitrogen to produce 2 moles of aluminum nitride.

We convert the aluminum's mass to moles

5 g/ 26.98 g/mol = 0.185 moles.

2 moles of Al are needed to produce 2 moles of AlN

so, ratio is 1:1

In conclussion we say:

0.185 moles of Al, must produce 0.185 moles of AlN
