The balanced equation shows a mole ratio of 1:1. We can see that CO is the limiting reagent.
moles CO = 25.0 g / 28.01 g/mol = 0.893 mol moles H2O = 25.0 g / 18.02 g/mol = 1.39 mol mastering chemistry chapter 9 answers
Since 4.5 mol of Cl2 are available, Cl2 is in excess, and Al is the limiting reagent. If 25.0 g of CO react with 25.0 g of H2O in the reaction: CO + H2O → CO2 + H2, what is the theoretical yield of CO2? Answer: First, we need to convert the masses to moles: The balanced equation shows a mole ratio of 1:1
