Answer:


\large \boxed{\text{0.8 mol of Al}}

Step-by-step explanation:

We will need a balanced equation with moles, so let's gather all the information in one place.

2Al + 3FeO ⟶ 3Fe + Al₂O₃

n/mol: 1.2

2 mol of Al react with 3 mol of FeO


\text{Moles of Al} = \text{1.2 mol Fe}* \frac{\text{1 mol Al }}{\text{3 mol Fe}}= \textbf{0.8 mol Al}\\\\\text{The reaction will need $\large \boxed{\textbf{0.8 mol of Al}}$}
