How to calculate theoretical yield of #CuCl_2 + Fe rarr Cu + FeCl_2#?

I already found the theoretical yield for Cu, because of a percent yield question, but this question wants the theoretical yieled for the overall reaction?

Answer 1

This is an open ended question. We need exact amounts of reactants in order to find the limiting reactant and by extension theoretical yield of the products for the reaction.

#CuCl_2(aq)+Fe(s) to Cu(s) + FeCl_2(aq)#

Balance the chemical equation, determine the limiting reactant, use stoichiometry to find moles of the product, and calculate theoretical yield using molar masses.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
