Answer:
Your strategy here will be to use the molar mass of potassium bromide,
KBr
, as a conversion factor to help you find the mass of three moles of this compound.
So, a compound's molar mass essentially tells you the mass of one mole of said compound. Now, let's assume that you only have a periodic table to work with here.
Potassium bromide is an ionic compound that is made up of potassium cations,
K
+
, and bromide anions,
Br
−
. Essentially, one formula unit of potassium bromide contains a potassium atom and a bromine atom.
Use the periodic table to find the molar masses of these two elements. You will find
For K:

=
39.0963 g mol

For Br:

To get the molar mass of one formula unit of potassium bromide, add the molar masses of the two elements
M
M KBr
=
39.0963 g mol

79.904 g mol

≈
119 g mol

So, if one mole of potassium bromide has a mas of
119 g
m it follows that three moles will have a mass of
3
moles KBr
⋅
molar mass of KBr
119 g

mole KBr
=
357 g
You should round this off to one sig fig, since that is how many sig figs you have for the number of moles of potassium bromide, but I'll leave it rounded to two sig figs

Oxygen gains two electrons when it bonds to form a complete outer shell and magnesium loses two electrons when bonding to gain its full outer shell.
As electrons are negative, the oxygen (which gains electrons) will become negative and the magnesium (which loses electrons) will become positive.
The negative and positive ions will then attract to one another due to the magnetic pull of the positive and negative.
<span>Tf is the freezing point of the solution(the solvent plus solute).
T*f is the freezing point of the pure solvent(without solute)
i is the van't Hoff factor.It is approximately the number of particles in solution that are made for each particle of the solute that is placed into solution.Therefore, for nonelectrolytes, i = 1.
Kf is the freezing point depression constant.For water, Kf = 1.86 Degree C/m, or 1.86 Degree C.kg/mol.
Tf is -1.58 Degree C</span>

Explanation:
The particular reactants in the Fischer esterification reaction were not stated.
Generally, a Fischer esterification is a reaction that proceeds as follows;
RCOOH + R'OH ⇄RCOOR' + H2O
This reaction occurs in the presence of an acid catalyst.
We can shift the equilibrium of this reaction towards the products side in two ways;
I) use of a large excess of either of the reactants
ii) removal of one of the products as it is formed.
Any of these methods shifts the equilibrium of the Fischer esterification reaction towards the products side.
