in excess over the amount required is
A
25%
B
33.3%
C
100%
D
50%
Answer: D
O2 required = 4/2 = 2 mol. Excess O2 = 3 - 2 = 1 mol. Percent excess = (1/2) x 100 = 50% (relative to the amount required).

28 g of N2 reacts with 10 g of H2 according to N2 + 3H2 -> 2NH3. The maximum mass of NH3 formed is (N = 14, H = 1)
NEET level
In 2Mg + O2 -> 2MgO, 4.8 g of Mg is heated with 1.6 g of O2. The mass of MgO formed is (Mg = 24, O = 16)
NEET level
50 g of CaCO3 is heated: CaCO3 -> CaO + CO2. If 21 g of CaO is actually obtained, the percentage yield is (Ca = 40, C = 12, O = 16)
NEET level
Fe2O3 + 3CO -> 2Fe + 3CO2. When 240 g of Fe2O3 reacts with 84 g of CO, the maximum mass of Fe obtained is (Fe = 56, C = 12, O = 16)
JEE Main level
5.4 g of Al reacts with 18.25 g of HCl: 2Al + 6HCl -> 2AlCl3 + 3H2. The volume of H2 at STP (22.4 L/mol) is (Al = 27, H = 1, Cl = 35.5)
JEE Main level
10.6 g of Na2CO3 reacts with excess HCl and 3.96 g of CO2 is collected. The percentage yield of CO2 is (Na = 23, C = 12, O = 16)
