Question

Consider the following reaction between sulfur trioxide and water:
SO3(g)+H2O(l)→H2SO4(aq) A chemist allows 61.5 g of SO3 and 11.2 g of H2O to react. When the reaction is finished, the chemist collects 51.0 g of H2SO4. Determine the percent yield for the reaction.

Answer 1

convert mass to moles and see which reagent limits the reaction.

Then compare the 51.0g yield to the theoretical yield using all available materials.
