Question

When 10.1g of magnesium (Mg) reacts with 10.5g of oxygen gas (O2) the reaction produces 11.9 g of magnesium oxide. Determine the Limiting Reactant, Theoretical Yield in grams and the Percent Yield for this chemical reaction. Need to show all your calculations. 2Mg(s) + O2(g) ? 2MgO(s) Limiting Reactant Circle One: Mg or O2 Theoretical Yield grams Percent Yield %
