Detailed Solution

The balanced equation is: 

4Al+3O22Al2O3

From the equation we can conclude that 

3 moles of oxygen reacted with 4 moles of aluminum

Then 1  moles of oxygen reacted with 4/3 moles of aluminum

Then 1.5 moles of oxygen reacted with 4/3×1.5 moles of aluminium

Upon calculation we get 2 moles of aluminium

Molecular weight of aluminium is 27g/mol. Then 2  moles of aluminium 

weight is 2×27=54g

 Correct option is (B).
