Question
What mass of SiC can be produced from the reaction in the previous question? (SiC = 40 g/mol)
Correct Answer
Option A is the correct answer.
Detailed Explanation
From the limiting reactant (SiO₂), 0.500 mol SiO₂ produces 0.500 mol SiC. Mass SiC = 0.500 mol × 40 g/mol = 20.0 g.
Hint
Use the limiting reactant to determine the theoretical yield.
