If you react 100g of ammonium chloride with excess calcium oxide, what Is the theoretical yeild (in grams) of ammonia? when you complete the reaction, your actual yeild of ammonia is 8.12g. what is your percent yeild for the production of ammonia using this process

31.78 grams

25.55%

Explanation:

The balanced reaction for ammonium chloride with calcium oxide will be:

2NH4Cl + Ca(OH)2 ---> CaCl2 + 2NH3 + 2H2O

The molecular weight for ammonium chloride(NH4Cl ) is 53.49g/mol, while the molecular weight for ammonium(NH3) is 17g/mol. The number of theoretical yield of ammonia from 100g of ammonium chloride will be:

100g / (53.49g/mol) * 2/2  * 17g/mol= 31.78 grams

If the actual yield is 8.12g, the percent yield will be: 8.12g/31.78g * 100% =25.55%
