Give reason : Reduction of Cr_(2) O_(3) with Al is thermodynamically feasible, yet it does no occur at room temperature.
(A) The reduction reaction, Cr_(2)O_(3)+2Al to Al_(2)O_(3)+2Cr, DeltaG^(0)=-421KJ is not possible at room temperature (R ) Certain amount of activation energy is essential for the reaction to make it thermodynamically feasible.
In the reaction: 2Al + Cr_(2) O_(3) rarr Al_(2) O_(3) + 2 Cr , 4.98 g of Al reacted with 20.0 g Cr_(2)O_(3) . How much grams of reactant ramains at the completion of the reaction?
