In the reaction 2Al + 3 MnO ---> Al2O3 +3Mn 220g Al and 400g of MnO are mixed, which substance is remained in access after the reaction and by how much \? Ive got that Al will remain at the end by 4.32 moles

OpenStudy (anonymous):

2 moles of Al requires 3 moles of MnO for reaction to proceed forward how many moles of each are present? calculate using moles=given mass/molar mass then see which is limiting if it were MnO then it wud have got completely used up remaing some aluminium if u dont understand this find out the moles of Al and MnO and type it here i will help u further

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes I did it in the above way...and i got the answer is 4.32 moles

OpenStudy (anonymous):

nice

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is it correct??? 4.32 Al moles are left

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i got 5.08 moles of Al

OpenStudy (anonymous):

listen the limiting reagent is MnO so 5.7 moles will be used untill it lasts now we se that for 1 Al2O3 ---> 3 MnO so for 1 MnO ---> 1/3 Al2O3 so for 5.6 MnO ---> 1.9 Al2O3

u shud never take the products ratio wat u want is whether there is any reactant left out unreacted if the reaction itself doesnt proceed in which courage did u go to check up with the pdts first let the reaction take place and see how much of alumuminium is left behind that is uwat the problem requires

OpenStudy (anonymous):

how did u get 5.08 Al

OpenStudy (anonymous):

do it by same approach 2Al + 3 MnO 2 moles of Al requires 3 Mno so calculate the moles remeber while calculating moles=given mass/molar mass molar mass is not same as atomic number
