Question

black smokers are found in the depths of the oceans. thinking that the coditions in these smokers might be conducive to the formation of organic compounds, two chemists in the germany found the following reaction could occur in similar conditions: 2CH3SH+CO-->CH3COSCH3+H2S

If you being with 10.0g of CH3SH and excess CO

A.) what is the thoretical yield of CH3COSCH3?
B.) if 8.65g of CH3COSCH3 IS ISOLATED, WHAT IS ITS PERCENT YIELD?
