Solved: Limiting Reactants (Section)Aluminum hydroxide

Chapter , Problem 78E

(choose chapter or problem)

Limiting Reactants (Section 3.7)

Aluminum hydroxide reacts with sulfuric acid as follows:

\(2\ \mathrm{Al}(\mathrm{OH})_{3}(s)+3\ \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}(a q) \longrightarrow \mathrm{Al}_{2}\left(\mathrm{SO}_{4}\right)_{3}(a q)+6\ \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(l)\)

Which is the limiting reactant when 0.500 mol \(\mathrm{Al}(\mathrm{OH})_{3}\) and 0.500 mol \(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}\) are allowed to react? How many moles of \(\mathrm {Al_2(SO_4)3}\) can form under these conditions? How many moles of the excess reactant remain after the completion of the reaction?
