Please help with this my current answer is wrong 

Consider the Wittig reaction of p-anisaldehyde with excess benzyltriphenylphosphonium chloride in base to
make (Z)-p-methoxystilbene.
base
benzyltriphenylphosphonium chloride
388.9 g/mol
anisaldehyde
136.2 g/mol
d = 1.12 g/mL
p-methoxystilbene
210.1 g/mol
Calculate the volume of p-anisaldehyde required to react in a 1:1 ratio with 0.69 g of benzyltriphenylphosphonium chloride to
make p-methoxystilbene.
volume of p-anisaldehyde: 0.215
mL
