Answer:
6.75 moles of CuCl₂ were used
Explanation:
Given data:
Number of moles of AlCl₃ formed = 4.5 mol
Number of moles of CuCl₂ used = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
3CuCl₂ + 2Al → 2AlCl₃ + 3Cu
Now we will compare the moles of CuCl₂ and AlCl₃
AlCl₃ : CuCl₂
2 : 3
4.5 : 3/2×4.5 = 6.75
6.75 moles of CuCl₂ were used.
