Answer:

23.5 grams of AlBr3 will be produced by 27.20 grams of NaBr

Step-by-step explanation:

The balanced equation here is

6NaBr + 1AlO3 = 3Na2O + 2AlBr3

6 moles of NaBr are required to produce 2 moles of AlBr3

Mass of one mole of NaBr = 102.894 g/mol

Mass of one mole of AlBr3 = 266.69 g/mol

Mass of 6 moles of NaBr = 6*102.894 g/mol

Mass of two moles of AlBr3 = 2*266.69 g/mol

6*102.894 g NaBr produces 2*266.69 g of AlBr3

23.5 grams of AlBr3 will be produced by (6*102.894)/(2*266.69 )*23.5 = 27.20 grams of NaBr
