Respuesta :

The number of moles of oxygen required to completely react with 54 g of aluminum is 1.5 moles.

Number of moles of the reacting aluminum

moles = reacting mass/molar mass

moles = 54/27

moles = 2 moles

From the given reaction of oxygen and aluminum;

4Al +  30₂   →   2Al₂O₃

4 moles of Al ----------> 3 moles of oxygen

2 moles of AL --------> ? moles of oxygen

= (2 x 3)/4

=  1.5 moles

Thus, the number of moles of oxygen required to completely react with 54 g of aluminum is 1.5 moles.
