How many moles are in 3 g of FeO?
# of mole (n) = 3/71.8= 0.0417mol
limiting reactant
The amount of product that may be created in a chemical reaction is limited by the limiting reactant, which is consumed first in the process.
How many grams are in 1.3 moles of NaCl?
Weight of NaCl= n X mw = 1.3 X 58.5 = 76.05g
percent yield
actual yield/theoretical yield x 100
Stoichiometric Ratio
is the mole ratio of the reactants, or reactants to products, as determined by the coefficients in the balanced chemical equation.
Excess Reagents
reactants that remain after all the limiting reagent is used up.
