What is the mass ratio of aluminum to oxygen in aluminum oxide, Al2O3?

9 : 8

Explanation:

Aluminum oxide has the following formula Al₂O₃.

Next, we shall determine the mass of Al and O₂ in Al₂O₃. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of Al in Al₂O₃ = 2 × 27 = 54 g

Mass of O₂ in Al₂O₃ = 3 × 16 = 48 g

Finally, we shall determine the mass ratio of Al and O₂. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of Al = 54 g

Mass of O₂ = 48 g

Mass of Al : Mass of O₂ = 54 : 48

Mass of Al : Mass of O₂ = 54 / 48

Mass of Al : Mass of O₂ = 9 / 8

Mass of Al : Mass of O₂ = 9 : 8

Therefore, the mass ratio of Al and O₂ in Al₂O₃ is 9 : 8

2b2t

explanation:

2b2t

a gas, having a molecular weight of 13 kg/kmol and a kinematic viscosity of 0.25 cm2/s, flows through a pipe 0.25 m internal diameter and 5 km long at the rate of 0.4 m3/s and is delivered at atmospheric pressure.
