SUMMARY

The reaction between iodine (I2) and aluminum (Al) to form aluminum iodide (AlI3) can be calculated using stoichiometry. The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is 2Al + 3I2 → 2AlI3. For 23g of aluminum, approximately 38.5g of iodine is required to react completely, based on the molar masses of aluminum and iodine. This calculation is essential for understanding the stoichiometric relationships in chemical reactions.
