The coefficients tell you the RATIO. The first one is 1:3 and the second one is 1:1

To determine how many moles of C can be produced from one mole of A, we look at the stoichiometric ratio between A and C in the chemical equation. The stoichiometric ratio tells us the ratio of moles of reactants and products in a balanced chemical equation.

In this case, the stoichiometric ratio between A and C is 1:3, which means that for every one mole of A, three moles of C are produced. Therefore, one mole of A can produce three moles of C.

To determine how many moles of D can be produced from four moles of A, we again look at the stoichiometric ratio, this time between A and D.

In the given equation, there is no direct stoichiometric ratio between A and D. This means that the equation does not give us enough information to determine the exact amount of moles of D produced from a given number of moles of A.

If you have additional information about the stoichiometry between A and D (e.g., from a different equation or experimental data), you can use that information to calculate the amount of moles of D produced. Otherwise, based on the given equation alone, we cannot determine the moles of D produced from four moles of A.
