C2H6(g) + O2(g) CO2(g) + H2O(g)

(a) Consider the unbalanced equation above. What is the maximum mass of CO2 that can be produced when 21.0 g of C2H6 and 38.5 g O2 react?

(b) If 24.7 g of carbon dioxide is actually produced by the reaction in part (a), what is the percent yield for this reaction?

Another LR problem. Follow that last problem I did for you to calculate mass CO2. This is the theoretical yield.

b. For % yield = (actual yield/theor yield)*100 = ?
