of and of react as with an actual yield of based on the limiting reagent (, ). Choose the correct statement(s).

  1. AThe mass of formed is .
  2. BThe mass of left is .
  3. CNo remains because it is the limiting reagent.
  4. DThe total number of moles of gas after reaction is .

Answer: A, B, D

= 2 mol needs 6 mol (available 9), so is limiting. At 80% yield extent = 1.6 mol. = 3.2 mol = 54.4 g (A true). left = 4.2 mol = 8.4 g (B true). left = 0.4 mol = 11.2 g, so C is false. Gas moles = 11 - 2 x 1.6 = 7.8 (D true).
