    2646.13g of Al or 2.65kg of Al

    Explanation:

    Equation of reaction

    2Al₂O₃ → 4Al + 3O₂

    From equation of reaction,

    2 moles of Al₂O₃ will produce 4 moles of Al

    Number of moles = mass / molar mass

    Mass = number of moles * molarmass

    Molar mass of Al₂O₃ = 101.96g/mol

    Mass = 2 * 101.96 = 203.92g

    Mass of Al = number of moles (4) * molar mass of Al

    Mass = 4 * 26.98

    Mass = 107.92g

    203.92g of Al₂O₃ = 107.92g of Al

    5000g of Al₂O₃ = x g of Al

    X = (5000 * 107.92) / 203.92

    X = 2646.13g of Al

    X = 2.65Kg of Al
