Question 7

What is the theoretical yield of alum in grams?

Enter Your Answer: 110 Incorrect

After reaction, the solution is evaporated to reduce its volume.

The final volume is 27.4 mL. The solution is cooled in an ice bath.

6.23 g of alum is recovered by filtration.

Question 8

What is the percent yield?

Enter Your Answer: 5.7% Incorrect
