Question

What is the product(s) of the reaction below?
2Al(s) + Fe2O3(s) ---> Al2O3(s) + 2Fe(s)
A. Solid aluminum oxide and solid iron
B. Solid aluminum
C. Saturated aluminum oxide and saturated iron
D. Iron(III) oxide and aluminum oxide

Answer 1

Answer:

A. Solid aluminum oxide and solid iron

Explanation:

The reaction equation is given as:

    2Al  +   Fe₂O₃  →   Al₂O₃   + 2Fe

The species on the left hand side are the reactants

Those on the right hand side of the expression are the products.

The products are:

Al₂O₃   and Fe

 These are solid aluminum oxide and solid iron
