<span>Balance the equation
8Zn + S8 -----> 8ZnS
work out how much ZnS is possible if all of each reagent were to react. The reagent that produces the least product is the limiting reagent.
moles Zn = mass / molar mass = 4.88 g / 65.38 g/mol = 0.07464 moles
8 moles Zn reacts to form 8 moles ZnS
Therefore moles ZnS possible = moles Zn = 0.07464 moles
moles S8 = 5.03 g / 256.48 g/mol = 0.01961 mol
1 mole S8 reacts to form 8 moles ZnS
Therefore moles ZnS possible = 8 x moles S8 = 0.1569 mol
The amount of Zn provided gives the least ZnS, therefore Zn is the limiting reagent.
The theoretical yield is the maximum possible yield possible from the reagents provided. It is the amount of product that will form if all the limiting reagent reacts.
So in this case 4.88 g Zn yields 0.07464 mol ZnS
theoretical mass ZnS = molar mass x moles
= 97.44 g/mol x 0.07464 mol
= 7.27 g
% yield = actual yield / theoretical yield x 100/1
= 6.02 g / 7.27 g x 100/1
= 82.8 %</span>

Hope this is right! :)
Once I told a chemistry joke
I got no reaction.
What do you do with a sick chemistry teacher?
If you can't helium, and can't curium, you might as well barium.
I don't trust atoms,
I heard they make up everything
Hope I helped make ur day. :)
Answer:
Due to the limited supply of oxygen, carbon (ii) oxide, a poisonous gas, is produced instead of carbon(iv) from the burning charcoal stove and this may result in death when inhaled.
Explanation:
When charcoal is burnt in a plentiful supply of oxygen, the combustion products is carbon (iv) oxide (carbon dioxide) which is not very toxic to the human body. The equation of the reaction is given below:
C + O₂ ----> CO₂
However, in a limited supply of oxygen gas, the combustion product is carbon (ii) oxide. The equation of the reaction is given below:
2C + O₂ ----> 2CO
Carbon (ii) oxide is a colorless and odorless gas which unlike carbon (iv) oxide is very toxic to human and results in fatality when inhaled in even small doses for a few minutes. Its mechanism of action of toxicity is that it competes with oxygen for transport in the body by hemoglobin. It combines irreversibly with hemoglobin to form carboxyhemoglobin, thereby depriving tissues and cells the oxygen they need. This results in death of the cells and tissues as well as of the whole organism. Thus, it is not advisable to light a charcoal stove in limited supply of oxygen.
