GIVEN COMPLETE SOLUTIONS and FINAL ANSERS WITHCORRECT
CALCULATOR ANSWERS UNITS
LiOH + KCl;  LiCl + KOH
1. I began this reaction with 240
grams of Lithium hydroxide. What is
my theoretical yield of Lithium
chloride?

2. I produced 16 grams of Lithium

chloride. What is my percent yield?

FeBr2 + 2KCl  FeCl2 + 2KBr

3. What is my theoretical yield of Iron
(II) chloride if I start with 84 grams of
Iron (II) bromide.

4. What is my percent yield of Iron (II)

chloride if my actual yield is 4 grams?
 C3H8 + 5O2  3CO2 + 4H2O
5. If I start with 50grams of C3H8, what
is my theoretical yield of water?

6. What is the percent yield of water if

73.5g is obtained of it from the
reaction?

7. If I got a percent yield of 75%. How

many grams of water did I actually
make?

Be + 2HCl  BeCl2 + H2
8. My theoretical yield of beryllium
chloride was 10.7 grams. If my actual
yield was 4.5 grams, what was my
percent yield?

II. LIMITING AND EXCESS REACTANT

Another way that sulfuric acid is formed in the atmosphere is when sulfur dioxide reacts with oxygen in a reaction
catalyzed by dust in the atmosphere to form sulfur trioxide. If 9.88 g of sulfur dioxide reacts with 2.18 g of oxygen.
A. Which substance is the limiting reactant?

B. How much sulfur trioxide can form?

C. Balance the mass of reactant and product.
