AI Generated Solution

To determine how much electricity in terms of Faraday is required to produce 40.0 g of aluminum from molten aluminum oxide (Al₂O₃), we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the Reduction Reaction The reduction reaction for aluminum from aluminum oxide can be represented as: \[ \text{Al}_2\text{O}_3 + 6e^- \rightarrow 2\text{Al} + \frac{3}{2}\text{O}_2 \] This indicates that 6 moles of electrons are required to produce 2 moles of aluminum. ### Step 2: Calculate the Molar Mass of Aluminum ...
