The  moles  of Al that are needed to react completely  with 17 .5  moles  of FeO  is  11.67  moles

calculation

2Al +3 FeO  → 3 Fe + Al₂O₃

The moles of Al  is calculate using the mole ratio

That is; From equation above the  mole  ratio  of Al :FeO is 2:3  therefore the moles of Al

  = 17.5 moles x 2/3 = 11.67  moles
