so a. 12 Y + P4 --> 4 Y3P b. This is a limiting reactant problem. The Y's 1520 g gives 5.70 mol Y3P (multiply g*MW of Y * mol ratio of 4 mol Y3P to 12 mol Y). The P4 's 775 g correspond to 25.0 mol Y3P. So Y is limiting and we can make 5.70 mol Y3P * 297.70 g/mol = 1700 g Y3P c. 1562 g/1700 g = 91.9% (NOTE: even tho 1700 looks like 2 sig digits, it is actually 3!! so we have 91.9, not 92 )

the multiply part gets 3. so 19.3. Adding keeps the tenth place, so answer of 20.2 has 3 sig digits
