Consider the reaction: 2AI_(s) + 6H⁺_(aq) → 2AI³⁺_(aq) + 3H_2(g). What is the total number of moles of electrons transferred from the aluminium atoms to the hydrogen ions?

Correct Answer: Option D

Explanation

2AL_(s) + 6H ⁺_(aq) → 2AL^{3+_(aq) + 3H_2(g). One aluminium atom transfers 3 electrons :. Two aluminium atoms will transfer 2×3=6 electrons}
