Answer:

Approximately 60.3\; \rm g.

Explanation:

Look up the relative atomic mass of \rm Al and \rm Br on a modern periodic table:

  • \rm Al: 26.982.
  • \rm Br: 79.904.

Calculate the formula mass of \rm AlBr_3 and \rm Br_2:

\begin{aligned}& M(\mathrm{AlBr_3}) = 26.982 + 3 \times 79.904 \approx 266.694\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1} \\ & M(\mathrm{Br_2}) = 2\times 79.904 \approx 159.808\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}\end{aligned}.

Calculate the number of moles of formula units in 67.1\; \rm g of \rm AlBr_3:

\begin{aligned}n(\mathrm{AlBr_3}) &= \frac{m(\mathrm{AlBr_3})}{M(\mathrm{AlBr_3})} \\ &\approx \frac{67.1\; \rm g}{266.694\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \approx 0.2516\; \rm mol \end{aligned}.

Refer to the balanced equation for this reaction. The ratio between the coefficients of \rm Br_2 and \rm AlBr_3 in that equation is three-to-two. That corresponds to the ratio:

\begin{aligned}\frac{n(\text{$\mathrm{Br_2}$, consumed})}{n(\text{$\mathrm{AlBr_3}$, produced})} &= \frac{3}{2}\end{aligned}.

It is already calculated that approximately 0.2516\; \rm mol of \rm AlBr_3 was produced through this reaction. Apply this ratio to approximate the (minimum) number of moles of \rm Br_2 that is consumed:

\displaystyle \frac{3}{2} \times 0.2516\; \rm mol \approx 0.3774\; \rm mol.

Calculate the mass of that 0.3774\; \rm mol of \rm Br_2:

\begin{aligned}m(\mathrm{Br_2}) &= n(\mathrm{Br_2})\cdot M(\mathrm{Br_2}) \\ &\approx 0.3774\; \rm mol \times 159.808\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1} \approx 60.3\; \rm g\end{aligned}.
