Answer:
18 moles of H₂.
Explanation:
The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:
2Al + 6HCl –> 2AlCl₃ + 3H₂
From the balanced equation above,
2 moles of Al reacted to produce 3 moles of H₂.
Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of H₂ produced by the reaction of 12 moles of Al. This can be obtained as follow:
From the balanced equation above,
2 moles of Al reacted to produce 3 moles of H₂.
Therefore, 12 moles of Al will react to produce = (12 × 3)/2 = 18 moles of H₂.
Thus, 18 moles of H₂ were obtained from the reaction.
