Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

[RxN] 2AlF₃ + 3K₂O → 6KF + Al₂O₃

[Given] 15.524 g KF

Step 2: Identify Conversions

[RxN] 2 mol AlF₃ = 6 mol KF

Molar Mass of Al - 26.98 g/mol

Molar Mass of F - 19.00 g/mol

Molar Mass of K - 39.10 g/mol

Molar Mass of AlF₃ - 26.98 + 3(19.00) = 83.98 g/mol

Molar Mass of KF - 39.10 + 19.00 = 58.10 g/mol

Step 3: Stoichiometry

1. Set up:
   `\displaystyle 15.524 \ g \ KF((1 \ mol \ KF)/(58.10 \ g \ KF))((2 \ mol \ AlF_3)/(6 \ mol \ KF))((83.98 \ g \ AlF_3)/(1 \ mol \ AlF_3))`
2. Multiply/Divide:
   `\displaystyle 7.47966 \ g \ AlF_3`

Step 4: Check

Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 5 sig figs.

7.47966 g AlF₃ ≈ 7.4797 g AlF₃
