The reaction of iron III oxide and aluminum is called the thermite reaction because of intense heat and is used to weld railroad tracks. Below is the balanced equation:
Fe2O3 (s) + 2Al (s) --> Al2O3 (s) + 2Fe (l)
If 20.0g of each reactant are used, which is the limiting reactant? (runs out first)
Hint(Do molar mass calculation to Fe for Theoretical Yield for both and compare the two.
Al is limiting
Fe2O3 is limiting
Both are equal
Neither is limiting
A manufacturer advertises a new synthesis reaction for methane with a percent yield of 110%. Comment on this claim.
That is an awesome return as most can not even get 100%
It is false because you can not get more than 100% it must have contaminants in the product.
It could be possible if they did not loose any product in the process
It is unlikely because in the process product is often lost along the way making hitting 110% difficult but not impossible.
