QUESTION:
When 50.0 g of iron(III) oxide reacts with carbon monoxide, 32.8 g of iron is produced. What is the percent yield of Fe for the reaction? (6.6, 6.7, 6.8)Fe2O3(s) + 3CO(g) ? 2Fe(s) + 3CO2(g)
ANSWER:Problem 116 AQPHere we have to calculate the percent yield of Fe for the given reaction.The given reaction is,Fe2O3(s) + 3CO(g) 2Fe(s) + 3CO2(g)Step-1Mass of reacted Fe2O3 = 50.0 gmMass of Fe form = 32.8 gm (actual yield)It is known that the % yield can be calculated as,% yield = 100 %Here actu
