4.00 mol C 8 H 18 reacts with 40.0 mol O 2 , in actual forming 917 g CO2. What is the percentage yield of such reaction?

% Yield = 81.4%

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

C₈H₁₈ + 25/2O₂ → 8CO₂ + 9H₂O

1 mole of C₈H₁₈ reacts with 25/2 moles of O₂ to produce 8 moles of CO₂

To solve this question we must, as first, find limiting reactant. With limiting reactant we can find theoretical yield of CO₂. Percent yield is defined as:

% Yield = Actual yield (917g CO₂) / Theoretical Yield * 100

For a complete reaction of 4.00 moles of C₈H₁₈ are required:

4.00moles C₈H₁₈ * (25/2 moles O₂ / 1mol C₈H₁₈) = 50.0 moles of O₂

As there are just 40.0 moles, O₂ is limiting reactant

The theoretical yield of CO₂ from 40.0 moles of O₂ is:

40.0 moles O₂ * (8 moles CO₂ / 25/2 moles O₂) = 25.6 moles of CO₂

As molar mass of CO₂ is 44.01g/mol:

25.6 moles of CO₂ * (44.01g / mol) = 1126.7g of CO₂ is theoretical yield

And percent yield is:

% Yield = 917g / 1126.7g * 100

smooth muscle is composed of involuntary muscles found within the walls of organs and structures such as the esophagus, stomach, intestines, and blood vessels. those muscles push materials like food or blood through organs. unlike skeletal muscle, smooth muscle can never be under your control.
