Percentage recovery gives us an idea of the amount of pure substance recovered after the chemical reaction. Percentage recovery can be more than 100 % or less than 100 %. Usually, in any experiment performed the weight percentage recovery will be less than 100. Percent recovery values greater than 100 show that the recovered compound is contaminated.
Amount of acetaminophen initially taken = 350 mg
Amount of acetaminophen obtained after recovery =185 mg
=
= 52.9%
Answer : The reagent present in excess and remains unreacted is,
Solution : Given,
Moles of = 3.00 mole
Moles of = 2.00 mole
Excess reagent : It is defined as the reactants not completely used up in the reaction.
Limiting reagent : It is defined as the reactants completely used up in the reaction.
Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.
The balanced chemical reaction is,
From the balanced reaction we conclude that
As, 2 moles of react with 1 mole of
So, 3.00 moles of react with
moles of
From this we conclude that, is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and
is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.
Hence, the reagent present in excess and remains unreacted is,
