From the density of ethanol given, the number of pounds of ethanol in the drum will be 46.099 pounds.

<h3>How to calculate density</h3>

Density of ethanol = 0.789/cm³

1 gallon = 3785.4ml

Volume of ethanol = 7 gallons = 7 × 3785.4ml = 26497.8ml

Mass of ethanol = Volume × Density.

= 26497.8 × 0.789

= 20906.764g

Since 1g = 0.002205 pounds, the mass of ethanol will be:

= 20906.764 × 0.002205

= 46.099 pounds.

The rule used here is that the algebraic sum of the oxidation numbers of all the atoms a molecule is zero.

Al2O32× ( oxidation number of Al)+3× ( Oxidation number of O ) = 0

2× ( Oxidation number of Al) +3(−2)=0

2× ( oxidation number of Al) +6

∴ Oxidation number of Al =+3
