Hope this is correct. :smile:
Mol of Al= mass/Mr
Mol of Al = 15/27
Mol ratio of Al to Al2O3 is 1:1
So moles of Al = moles of Al2O3
So if Mass= moles x Mr
Then mass of Al2O3= (15/27) x (27+27+16+16+16)
Mass of Al2O3 = 56.66
Mass= 56.7g to 3s.f.

Thank you i got 63g so i knew that had to be wrong because the equaution goes 4Al +3O2 =2AlO3

WAIT!
Oh if that's the equation then the mol ratio is 2:1
So the answer is half of 56.66g
It's 28.3g

Sorry again. That is the answer.

Lol thank you ever soo much
I thought you had to add both of the reactants so ghat why i did it wrong. But wouldnt you have to add 15g to get the mass of the products at the end????
In so sorry for like disturbing you😯😯😯😯
Ps this is what i did so if its alright with u could u please tell me what i did wrong here???
