Answer: 26 moles of are required for the reaction.
Explanation:
We are given:
Moles of = 6.5 moles
The given chemical reaction follows:
By the stoichiometry of the reaction:
If 1 mole of is produced by 4 moles of
So, 6.5 moles of will be produced by = of
Hence, 26 moles of are required for the reaction.
