Chromium metal can be produced from the high temperature reaction of Cr2O3(chromium(III) oxide) with silicon or aluminum by each of the following reactions:
Cr2O3+2Al-->2Cr+Al2O3
2Cr2O3+3Si-->4Cr+3SiO2
1) Calculate the number of grams of aluminum required to prepare 87 g of chromium metal by the first reaction.
2) Calculate the number of grams of silicon required to prepare 87 g of chromium metal by the second reaction.
