1. a. What is the theoretical yield that could be obtained from 256g of sulfur dioxide.
2SO2 + O2  2SO3
b. The actual yield of sulfur trioxide produced is 202g. Calculate the percentage yield.
2. a. Iron is extracted from iron oxide by reducing with carbon
Fe2O3 + 3CO  2Fe + 3CO2
Calculate the theoretical yield of iron that could be obtained from 320 g of iron oxide.
b. The actual yield of iron produced is 89.6g. Calculate the percentage yield.
Name 3 products made in the petrochemical industry 1. 2. 3.
Why is it expensive to dispose of waste products?
Using ideas about waste products explain why people would object to a proposal to build a new factory to manufacture plastics near to their home?
