How many grams of Cu will be produced when 10 grams of Al reacts with CuCl2 in the following chemical reaction? Al (s) + CuCl2 (aq) → AlCl3 (aq) + Cu (s). Use the Equation Balancer tool to balance the equation and find the mole ratio of Cu:Al. The molar masses Al, Cu, and CuCl2 are 26.98 grams, 63.55 grams, and 134.45 grams respectively.

    First, we need to write the balanced chemical equation for the given problem.

    The balanced equation will be:

    2Al + 3CuCl2 → 2AlCl3 + 3Cu

    So, according to the balanced equation, 2 moles (53.96 grams) of Al produces 3 moles (190.65 grams) of Cu.

    So,

    1 gram of Al will produce copper = 190.65/53.96 grams

    10 grams of Al will produce copper = 190.65/53.96 x 10 = 35.33 grams

    Thus,

    10 grams of Al react with CuCl2 to produce 35.33 grams of Cu
