Silver metal reacts with sulfur to form silver sulfide according to the following reaction: 2Ag(s) + S(s) Ag2S(s)
1. Identify the limiting reagent if 50.0 g Ag reacts with 10.0 g S.
2. What is the theoretical yield in g of Ag2S produced from the reaction?
3. What is the amount in g of the excess reactant expected to remain after the reaction?
4. When the reaction occurred, the amount of Ag2S obtained was 45.0 g. What is the percent yield of the reaction?
