C. 2/2
a) Balance the chemical equation
2Al + 3Cl2 → 2AlCl3
b) We want to convert moles of AlCl3 to moles of Al
The conversion factor is either 2 mol Al/2 mol AlCl3 or 2 mol AlCl3/2 mol Al.
We choose the one that makes the units cancel:
x mol AlCl3 x (2 mol Al)/(2mol AlCl3) = x mol Al
The fraction for the molar ratio is 2/2.
The fraction for the determination of mass of Aluminum from known mass of aluminum chloride has been 2/2. Hence, option C is correct.
The mole ratio has been defined as the ratio of the moles of one substance with respect to the moles of another substance.
Mole ratio
The given reaction has been:
[tex]\rm Al\;+\;Cl_2\;\rightarrow\;AlCl_3[/tex]
For the determination of the mole ratio from the chemical reaction, the reaction has been balanced.
The balanced chemical reaction has been:
[tex]\rm 2\;Al\;+\;3\;Cl_2\;\rightarrow\;2\;AlCl_3[/tex]
From the balanced chemical equation, for 2 moles of aluminum chloride, 2 moles of Al have been used. Thus, the Al used for the x moles of known aluminum chloride has been:
[tex]\rm 2\;mol\;AlCl_3=2\;mol\;Al\\\textit x\;mol\;AlCl_3=\dfrac{2}{2}\;\times\;\textit x\;Al[/tex]
Thus, the fraction for the determination of mass of Aluminum from known mass of aluminum chloride has been 2/2. Hence, option C is correct.
