The reaction of phenol with bromine molecule gives 2,4,6-tribromophenol. How many moles of bromine molecule are required in order to get 298g of
2,4,6-tribromophenol from 94g of phenol? The reaction is supposed to proceed theoretically. Here, atomic masses are H =1 , C=12 , O=16, Br= 80
How should i start
is this reaction right?
2C6H5OH + 3Br2 ---> 2C6H3OBr3

This is a simple stoichiometry problem.
First, balance your equation (you're missing a product- where does the rest of the hydrogen go?).
Then find your moles of your known substance (the amount of product you're hoping for), then use your mole-to-mole ratio to find out how many moles of
bromine you need.
