Question

Na3AlF6 is synthesized according to the following reaction.

Al2O3 (k) + 6 NaOH (aq) + 12HF (g) à 2 Na3AlF6 (k) + 9 H2O (s)

 

In an experiment; 6.55 g Al2O3 and excess HF were dissolved in 1.75 L of 0.15 M NaOH . If 20 g Na3AlF6 were obtained at the end of the experiment,

  • What is the limiting reagent?
  • What is the real yield?
  • What is the theoretical yield?
  • What is % yield (percentage yield)?

(MA (Na3AlF6): 209.94 g/mol; (Al2O3): 101.96 g/mol; (NaOH): 39.997 g/mol)
