Given the balanced equation representing a reaction:

Al2(SO4)3 +6NaOH ==> 2Al(OH)3 + 3Na2SO4


The mole ratio of NaOH to Al(OH)3 is


(1) 1:1 (2) 3:1


(3) 1:3 (4) 3:7

The answer is number 2. 3:1. This is the simplified value of 6:2 which came from 6NaOH:2Al(OH)3. The original ratio is 6:2 but it can be simplified through dividing it each by 2. So 6 divided by 2 equals to 3 and 2 divided by 2 is 1. Therefore the simplified ratio is 3:1.
