Answer 1

Sketch 10 atoms of aluminum and 6 molecules of oxygen gas in the container on the left. In the right container, sketch the contents after the reaction is complete.

Step-by-step explanation:

The balanced chemical equation of the reaction is:

`4Al + 3 O_2 -> 2Al_2O_3`

Though there are 10 atoms of Al, only four atoms will react with every three molecules of oxygen.

Hence, right side the product formed is --- Al2O3.
