The theoretical and percentage yield for the reaction are:

  • The theoretical yield is 21 g
  • The percentage yield is 119%

<h3>Balanced equation </h3>

CH₄ + 2O₂ —> CO₂ + 2H₂O

Molar mass of CH₄ = 16 g/mol

Mass of CH₄ from the balanced equation = 1 × 16 = 16 g

Molar mass of O₂ = 32 g/mol

Mass of O₂ from the balanced equation = 2 × 32 = 64 g

Molar mass of CO₂ = 44 g/mol

Mass of CO₂ from the balanced equation = 1 × 44 = 44 g

SUMMARY

From the balanced equation above,

16 g of CH₄ reacted with 64 g of O₂ to produce 44 g of CO₂

<h3>How to determine the limiting reactant</h3>

From the balanced equation above,

16 g of CH₄ reacted with 64 g of O₂

Therefore,

20 g of CH₄ will react with = (20 × 64 ) / 16 = 80 g of O₂

From the above calculation, a higher mass (i.e 80 g) of O₂ than what was given (i.e 30 g) is needed to react completely with 20 g of CH₄.

Therefore, O₂ is the limiting reactant

<h3>How to determine the theoretical yield of CO₂</h3>

From the balanced equation above,

64 g of O₂ reacted to produce 44 g of CO₂

Therefore,

30g of O₂ will react to produce = (30 × 44) / 64 = 21 g of CO₂

<h3>How to determine the percentage yield </h3>
  • Actual yield of CO₂ = 25 g
  • Theoretical yield of CO₂ = 21 g
  • Percentage yield =?

Percentage yield = (Actual / Theoretical) × 100

Percentage yield = (25 / 21) ×100

Percentage yield = 119%

kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

The metric system goes by powers of ten, so it's very easy to measure. That would be the main advantage, measurements of ten. We can also say it's the most used measurement around the world, so all scientists have little to no conversion, but the main answer is probably the first one :)
