Answer:

137.8g of Al(OH)₃ reacts

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the reaction:

3HCl + Al(OH)₃ → 3H₂O + AlCl₃

3 moles of HCl reacts per mole of Al(OH)₃

If 5.30 moles of HCl react, moles of Al(OH)₃ are:

5.30 mol HCl × (1 mol Al(OH)₃ / 3 mol HCl) = 1.767 moles of Al(OH)₃

In mass:

1.767 moles of Al(OH)₃ × (78g / 1mol) = 137.8g of Al(OH)₃ reacts
