WellCertainly! Here's a stoichiometry question for you:
**Question:**
When solid iron (III) oxide (Fe2O3) is reduced with carbon monoxide gas (CO) in the presence of excess carbon (C) to produce iron (Fe), carbon dioxide gas (CO2), and carbon monoxide gas (CO) as byproducts according to the following balanced equation:
\[ Fe2O3(s) + 3CO(g) + 3C(s) \rightarrow 2Fe(s) + 3CO2(g) + 3CO(g) \]
1. If 200 grams of iron (III) oxide (Fe2O3) is mixed with 130 grams of carbon monoxide (CO) and excess carbon (C), calculate:
a) The limiting reactant
b) The theoretical yield of iron (Fe) in grams
c) The percentage yield of iron if the actual yield obtained is 145 grams
