Explanation / Answer

molar mass of NaI = 149.89 g/mol

so

moles of NaI = 32.6 g / 149.89 (g/mol)

moles of NaI = 0.2175 mol

now

consider the balanced reaction

Cl2 + 2 NaI --> 2 NaCl + I2

so

moles of NaCl produced = 0.2175 mol NaI x ( 2 mol NaCl / 2 mol NaI)

moles of NaCl produced = 0.2175 mol

now

mass of NaCl produced = 0.2175 mol x 58.4 g/mol

mass of NaCl produced = 12.7 g

so

12.7 grams of NaCl are produced
