5 moles of Fe.

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

Fe₂O₃ + 2Al —> Al₂O₃ + 2Fe

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Fe₂O₃ reacted with 2 moles of Al to produced 2 moles of Fe.

Next, we shall determine the limiting reactant. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Fe₂O₃ reacted with 2 moles of Al.

Therefore, 3 moles of Fe₂O₃ will react with = 3 × 2 = 6 moles of Fe.

From the calculation made above, we can see clearly that a higher amount (i.e 6 moles) of Al than what was given (i.e 5 moles) is needed to react completely with 3 moles of Fe₂O₃.

Therefore, Al is the limiting reactant and Fe₂O₃ is the excess reactant.

Finally, we shall determine the maximum amount of Fe produced.

This can be obtained by using the limiting reactant as illustrated below.

NOTE: The limiting reactant is Al.

From the balanced equation above,

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

Therefore, 5 moles of Al will also react to produce 5 moles of Fe.

Thus, 5 moles of Fe were obtained from the reaction.

Answer from: Quest

periodic trends is an atom that gets larger as the number of electronic shells increase, the radius of atoms increases as you go down a certain group in the periodic table of elements. in general, the size of an atom will decrease as you move from left to right of a certain period.

Answer from: Quest

answer: e. sour taste

explanation: acids are those substances which dissociates in water to give $h^+$ ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. acids are sour in taste. example: hcl

$hcl\rightarrow h^++cl^-$

bases are those substances which dissociates in water to give $oh^-$ ions or accepts $h^+$ ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. bases are bitter in taste. bases are slippery in nature.

$naoh\rightarrow na^++oh^-$

$nh_3+h^+\rightarrow nh_4^+$
