CAN BE SOLVED WITHOUT HAVING SOLVED FARLIER PARTS, However, if you need a numerical result that you were not successful in obtaining, make a physically reasonable approximation for that quantity (and indicate it as such) and use it to solve the latter parts, 3. A problem that requests you to “calculate” implies that several caleulation steps may be necessary for the problem's solution, You must show these steps clearly and indicate all values, including physical constants used to obtain your quantitative result. Significant figures must be correct. 4. If you don’t understand wiat the problem is requesting, raise your hand to for clarification. 5. Physical constants, formulas and a periodic table are given on the last page. You may detach this page once the exam has started. 1. Limiting Reagents / Reaction Yields page 2(18 points) 2.
