Add all four reaction steps together to get the overall reaction. Remember to cross out anything that occurs on both the reactant and product sides and to combine like terms. 1. 2 Al(s) + 2 KOH (aq) + 6 H2O (l) → 2 KAl(OH)4(aq) + 3 H2(g) 2. 2 KAl(OH)4(aq) + H2SO4 (aq) → 2 Al(OH)3(s) + 2 H2O (l) + K2SO4(aq) 3. 2 Al(OH)3(s) + 3 H2SO4 (aq) → Al2(SO4)3(aq) + 6 H2O (l) 4. Al2(SO4)3(aq) + K2SO4(aq) + 24 H2O (l) →2 (KAl(SO4)2∙12H2O) (s) For each reactant except water, calculate the number of moles you added (use the stoichiometry of the balanced equation to identify the limiting reactant. Al: ____ moles KOH: ____ moles H2SO4: ____ moles mass of aluminum: 0.49g the volume of 1.4 M KOH: 25.0 mL the volume of 9 M H2SO4: 10.2 mL mass of watch glass: 50.28 g mass of watch glass plus alum: 58.17g
