10g Iron (Fe) reacts with 0.2 moles of excess sulfur (S) to produce iron sulfide (FeS) according to the
following unbalanced chemical equation:
Fe + S → FeS
Give: M(Fe)=56 , M(S)=32
1- Balance the chemical equation to represent the actual stoichiometry of the reaction.
2- Calculate the mass of iron sulfide (FeS) produced.
3- Determine the mass of sulfur (S) remaining after the reaction.
15.4g of iron sulfide was obtained and measured at the end of the experiment using a digital balance.
4- Calculate the percent yield of the reaction.

n of S reacted= n of Fe consumed × 1
= 0.180 mol × 1= 0.180 mol
n remaining of S =n initial of S – n of S reacted
= 0.2 mol - 0.180 mol
= 0.02mol
