The theoretical yield of 1,2-epoxycyclohexane is grams, when starting with 3.0 grams of trans-2-bromocyclohexanol. (Enter the number using 3 significant figures, i. e. 1.22)

1.64g

Explanation:

The reaction scheme is given as;

2-bromocyclohexanol  --> 1,2-epoxycyclohexane + HBr

From the reaction above,

1 mol of 2-bromocyclohexanol produces 1 mol of 1,2-epoxycyclohexane

3.0 grams of trans-2-bromocyclohexanol.

Molar mass = 179.05 g/mol

Number of moles = mass / molar mass = 3 / 179.05 = 0.016755 mol

This means  0.016755 mol of 1,2-epoxycyclohexane would be produced.

Molar mass =  98.143 g/mol

Theoretical  yield = Number of moles * Molar mass

Theoretical  yield =  0.016755 * 98.143 ≈ 1.64g
