The key reaction (unbalanced) in the manufacture of synthetic cryolite for aluminum

Chapter 22, Problem 22.72

(choose chapter or problem)

The key reaction (unbalanced) in the manufacture of synthetic cryolite for aluminum electrolysis is HF(g) 1 Al(OH)3(s) 1 NaOH(aq) - Na3AlF6(aq) 1 H2O(l) Assuming a 95.6% yield of dried, crystallized product, what mass (in kg) of cryolite can be obtained from the reaction of 365 kg of Al(OH)3, 1.20 m3 of 50.0% by mass aqueous NaOH (d 5 1.53 g/mL), and 265 m3 of gaseous HF at 305 kPa and 91.58C? (Assume that the ideal gas law holds.)
