Asked by Samuel

If 10g of phosphine is made to react with 15g of chlorine gas, calculate the percentage yield if 5.5g of phosphorus pentachloride was experimentally produced
Answered by DrBob222
This is a limiting reagent (LR) problem. Using the procedure outlined by Bob P below, find how much PCl5 should be produced. Tha't the theoretical yield (TY). The actual yield (AY) is 5.5 g.
%yield = (AY/TY)*100 = ?
