Answer:- B: 4.21 is the correct option.
Solution:- The given balanced equation is:
From the balanced equation, there is 1:1 mol ratio between and Sn.
To calculate the moles of required to produce500.0 grams of Sn, we need to convert the grams to moles and multiply it by the mole ratio as:
= 500.0g Sn(1 mole Sn / 118.71 g Sn ) ( 1 mole SnO2 / 1 mole Sn )
= 4.21 mole SnO2
So, the correct option is B: 4.21 moles.
