The reaction of $5.0 \mathrm{g}$ of pentane $\left(\mathrm{C}_{5} \mathrm{H}_{12}\right)$ with $5.0 \mathrm{g}$ of oxygen gas produces $20.4 \mathrm{g}$ of $\mathrm{CO}_{2} .$ What is the percent yield of this reaction?
If $1.00 \mathrm{~mol}$ of ethane gas and $5.00 \mathrm{~mol}$ of oxygen gas react, what is the limiting reactant and how many moles of water are produced from the reaction? $$2 \mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{6}(g)+7 \mathrm{O}_{2}(g) \longrightarrow 4 \mathrm{CO}_{2}(g)+6 \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}(g)$$
