Question

3SnCl4 + 4Al(C2H5)3  3Sn(C2H5)4 + 4AlCl3

In one experiment, 0.270 L of SnCl4 (d = 2.226 g/mL) was treated with 0.521 L of triethylaluminum (Al(C2H5)3); d = 0.835 g/mL).
What is the theoretical yield in this experiment (mass of tetraethylstannane, Sn(C2H5)4)?

 

If 0.408 L of tetraethylstannane (d = 1.187 g/mL) were actually isolated in this experiment, what was the percent yield?
