How many moles of Al are necessary to form 45.0 g of AlBr, from this reaction:
2 Al(s) + 3 Br_(1) ► 2 AlBr_(s)?

0.169 mole of Al

Explanation:

We'll begin by by calculating the number of mole in 45 gof AlBr₃. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of AlBr₃ = 45 g

Molar mass of AlBr₃ = 27 + (3×80)

= 27 + 240

= 267 g/mol

Mole of AlBr₃ =?

Mole = mass /molar mass

Mole of AlBr₃ = 45 / 267

Mole of AlBr₃ = 0.169 mole

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of Al needed to produce 45 g (i.e 0.169 mole) of AlBr₃. This can be obtained as illustrated below:

2Al + 3Br₂ —> 2AlBr₃

From the balanced equation above,

2 moles of Al reacted to produce 2 moles of AlBr₃.

Therefore, 0.169 mole of Al will also react to produce 0.169 mole of AlBr₃.

Thus, 0.169 mole of Al is needed for the reaction.

explanation:

the largest database of organic compounds lists about 10 million substances, which include compounds originating from living organisms and those synthesized by chemists. the number of potential organic compounds has been estimated at 1060—an astronomically high number. the existence of so many organic molecules is a consequence of the ability of carbon atoms to form up to four strong bonds to other carbon atoms, resulting in chains and rings of many different sizes, shapes, and complexities. the simplest organic compounds contain only the elements carbon and hydrogen, and are called hydrocarbons. even though they are composed of only two types of atoms, there is a wide variety of hydrocarbons because they may consist of varying lengths of chains, branched chains, and rings of carbon atoms, or combinations of these structures. in addition, hydrocarbons may differ in the types of carbon-carbon bonds present in their molecules. many hydrocarbons are found in plants, animals, and their fossils; other hydrocarbons have been prepared in the laboratory. we use hydrocarbons every day, mainly as fuels, such as natural gas, acetylene, propane, butane, and the principal components of gasoline, diesel fuel, and heating oil. the familiar plastics polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene are also hydrocarbons. we can distinguish several types of hydrocarbons by differences in the bonding between carbon atoms. this leads to differences in geometries and in the hybridization of the carbon orbitals.
