Question

Consider the following equation:
TiCl4(g) + 2Mg(l) → Ti(s) + 2MgCl2(l)
3.54×107g of TiCl4(g) are reacted completely. If 7.91×106g of Ti(s) is actually obtained, calculate the % yield.

Answer 1

I'm confused with the phases unless this reaction is occurring at an elevated temperature. At any rate
mols TiCl4 = grams/molar mass
Using the coefficients in the balanced equation, convert mols TiCl4 to mols Ti.
Now convert mols Ti to grams Ti by g Ti = mols Ti x atomic mass Ti. This is the theoretical yield (TY).
%yield = (actual yield/TY)*100 = ?
