A portion of aluminum metal (4.50 grams) is dissolved in 200 mL of Potassium hydroxide solution. How many grams of alum crystals can be recovered from 60 mL of this final solution (assume 100% yield)? Suppose 64.00 grams of pure alum was recovered from the 200mL solution. What % yield of the original 4.50 grams aluminum metal was actually recovered? The molarity of KOH is 6M.
