Solution

To calculate the theoretical yield of PbBr2, we first need to determine the number of moles of KBr that are present.

Step 1: Calculate the number of moles of KBr Number of moles = mass / molar mass Number of moles of KBr = 0.357 g / 119.00 g mol-1 = 0.003 mol

Step 2: From the balanced chemical equation, we can see that the ratio of KBr to PbBr2 is 2:1. Therefore, the number of moles of PbBr2 that can be formed from 0.003 mol of KBr is 0.003 mol / 2 = 0.0015 mol.

Step 3: Calculate the mass of PbBr2 that can be formed Mass = number of moles * molar mass Mass of PbBr2 = 0.0015 mol * 367.00 g mol-1 = 0.551 g

So, the theoretical yield of PbBr2 is 0.551 g. Therefore, the correct answer is 0.551 g.
