A 101.96 g sample of a solid is broken down into 53.96 g of aluminum and an unknown amount of oxygen. If a chemist wants to make 1,937 g of that solid without any leftovers, how much aluminum and oxygen should she react together?
What scientific law helped you solve this problem?
101.96g S --> 53.96g Al + ____ g O
101.96 - 53.96 = 48.00g O
1937/101.96 = 19.00
Al: 53.96g * 19.00 = 1,025g Al
O: 48.00g * 19.00 = 912.0g O
