3.1 g of C reacts with 2.7 g of O2 to produce 16.5 g of CO2 experimentally, according to the equation below. What is the percent yield of this reaction?C + O2 ➞ CO2
Strategy
find the limiting reagent ➡ calculate moles of CO2 ➡ calculate grams of CO2 (this is the theoretical yield) ➡ calculate the % yield of the reaction
